First one is the purge solenoid for the charcoal cannister. You'll note the line coming from it goes to the cannister up on the core support.

Second is added by someone - follow the line to see where it goes. Someone decided they needed full manifold vacuum supply to who knows what? Looks like it has a factory style line on it though. At any rate that port on the intake is normally plugged with a pipe plug.

Final one is the EGR solenoid.

Sensor next to the thermostat is your CTS - coolant temperature sensor - might as well install a brand new one, good brand only like AC Delco or Delphi, while you're in there working.

OK so that extra vacuum line off that fitting must go to a valve on your heater hoses, passenger side near the firewall? Guessing you have rear A/C/heat on your Tahoe.

Thanks again, there is a hose from that valve up to the A/C stuff on the firewall and that vac line on the intake goes there too I think ill look again latter
