New one from Audi is about $28.00. You can also buy a generic one from Autozone. I opted for the O.E.M. part as I'm just that way.

No, you can't remove the check valve, it's requried to prevent boost pressure from reaching the evaporative storage cannister, and the other fuel tank ventilation system. The clicking noise is the N80 EVAP purge solenoid valve, just to the left of the check valve. You also need to replace that ripped wiring harness boot on the N80 soleniod valve. If it's not fixed, the contact terminals will get dirty and cause problems.
