This is a picture of the choke tubes off of my 76 CJ5 w/ 304. Can anyone tell me what the round diaphragm looking thing is and what purpose it serves?

Thermostatic valve, IIRC. Correct, not a service part.

Since my tubes broke off I am considering bending up some new ones using some brake line. My new lines would not include that piece so I was wondering if anyone knows what its function is, and if I would have any problems with it not being there anymore.

Yeah, it'll work without it. The warmup 'profile' will be a little different, but I expect it will be fine.
