EVAP Purge Valve Problem

Hi. Does anyone know where I can find the EVAP Purge Valve on my 1996 (Plastic body) Trans Sport with the 3.4l engine?

I have the Haynes Manuals for the older 1991 style body and the newer metal bodied one (for info on the 3.4l engine). On my vehicle, the EVAP canister is behind the passenger side headlight (as on the 1991 vehicle) which is different to the newer model. According to the new model's manual this is located near the fuel tank and the purge valve is below the ignition coils at the rear of the engine. I cannot see into this area but cannot feel anything like a valve there. There is a small valve with two pipes and a cable going to it mounted on the passenger side inner wing (fender). Is this the purge valve?
