Are you trying to install a fuel nipple or something

If I had to take a guess its to prevent any gas from getting up into the cap area and to keep gas from coming out of the vent hole. I speculate due to the lack of my boats not having that and they wouldn't stop spitting gas out of the vent hole at the top of the gas caps

I have been running it without it and I don't get any fuel coming out of the cap.
The red one circled is the only piece that I am running in the cap.

Ah right I think you'll be fine, if I had to guess that part you removed is just to help the rubber bulb keep its shape so it doesn't deform going into the throat of the fuel tank
that parts a one way valve nizz,
stops fuel exiting but allows tank to vent
,
and like ryan said, stops fuel spilling out, if you aint getting fuel spillage then you're lucky,
run without it if you don't have fuel splash issues, just run the bulb wi the hole,
