Can I just confirm that I can ditch this with no adverse affect to the emmissions or the ecu, as long as I do the necessary with the hoses?

Yes. Cap the inlet manifold hose and leave the fuel tank one open.
It affects 'emissions', but not the ones coming out of the exhaust pipe that the MOT man is interested in.
