Default help needed fitting k&n induction kit

Went to fit a K&N induction kit to my cosworth today and noticed two hoses going into the standard air box. When i fit the induction kit what do i do with these hoses?

The pipercross has flanges for the 2 pipes to join to, if ya still want to use them.
I have a k&n grp A cone on mine and as above the pipe from the amel valve is to atmosphere and i stuck a small k&n filter on the breather pipe at front of cam belt cover.
