Default amal valve pipe

ok probably a stupid question but does anybody know
what the pipe from the amal valve to the metering head
actually does and if it needs this pipe for any reason.
i am asking because my car has 2 bleed valves fitted,
one is replacing the amal valve so is just working as a t-piece
basically and the other is doing its job but i would like
to do away with both of them and just run the pipe straight
from the actuator to the turbo.
thanks
