The "canister" on the back is the EACV (Electronic Air Control Valve) which is used to increase the idle when the A/C cuts on so the engine doesn't bog/cutoff. There should be one on the Z6 (Not identical, smaller but uses same plug/wires)
The white plug is the Intake Air Temperature Sensor. You may need to extend the wires on your harness. I personally had to unwrap that part of the engine harness and untangle the wires for the correct plug to move it towards the back center section of the Intake Manifold rather that the original driverside.
