Removed the evap canister to make room for the Stebel air compressor. What are the two circled items below?

2 looks like purge valve to clear out the evap by releasing the vacuum holding the valve shut. Should be fine to unplug and remove.

1 I really can't tell.
 
Take the hose from the tank overflow cut it and stuff it in the large hose going down towards the ground and then ty wrap it. Disconnect the purge valve control and tape up the electrical connection. Ty wrap up out of the way. Cap off the the lines from the throttle bodies.
 
Would it be safe to remove the lines right at the TbS and plug the throttle bodies connection if so where can you get caps/plugs to fit---does auto zone or some place similar carry them?

Yes, and A well stocked auto supplier should have caps in all shapes and sizes, you can even get small kit with an assortment of sizes just make sure the are rated for fuel vapor not air or vacuum or they won't last long.

Or... i put self-tapping sheet metal screws in each of the two lines heading up to the throttle bodies and called it a day. :D
