When I replaced the heads on my San Jose 67 289 back in the 80s, the new stock heads did not have the ports for the smog pump system. I just removed the smog pump and hoses, went with an open breather cap on the driver's side valve cover for the PCV system. If you remove the smog pump and hoses, you'll need to plug the holes in the heads. I drove around for about a week in high school with the holes open, sounded bad ass to me and my classic car buds..lol I think there are covers available now to plug the holes.
DO NOT throw away the smog pump and hoses. They are actually worth quite a bit to those looking for original parts. I kept all the smog equipment.
