Engine question, vacuum actuators 06 2.7

Whilst doing oil and filter change, dont hold much oil at all for such a large engine?
I noticed theres a vacuum actuator at the back end of each rocker cover and wondered what they were for, some sort of manifold flaps?

Thanks Mike, so my looking all over the engine bay for the little pipes to go on the actuator stubs was a waste of time then Very Happy
I even googled it and got zero results, which is weird as most car makes with them fitted break all the time.
Wonder how many other people have even noticed them?
