02 Aero SW, 5-sp, p0455 code, no CEL, EVAP?

My '02 Aero SW with manual transmission stumbles a bit on idle, but other than that, runs fine, with no boost or mileage issues.
The mildly erratic idle is the only symptom of a problem. I got a brief flashing CEL when I ran the fuel tank almost dry, and when I checked the codes, there was the 0455 code in memory (but no CEL).
So, I'm planning on cleaning the EVAP purge valve/solenoid first as well as tracing the many vacuum lines for a leak. I'm assuming it's the valve right at the front of the engine bay over the turbo wastegate actuator? Three hoses connected to the bottom at 90° angle. It doesn't seem to be available as a standalone part (Saab P/N 917xxx - it was dark - couldn't get the full #).
Can someone point me to instructions on cleaning the valve or a possible cheaper 2nd source?
Also, any comments on the "bolt mod", plugging the top hose and venting the valve nipple to atmosphere?
Many thanks - JMJ
