I'm in the process of installing new E fans. The black relay on the left with the purple, yellow, black, and red wires is from the old fans. He had the red wire with the yellow connector hooked up to the circuit breaker on the right. Can I remove all of it? And if not what do I hook the red wire too? Basically what I'm asking is was the circuit breaker from the factory or can I take it off as it was part of the old kit?

Apparently you didn't get a good answer on this since you've asked this several times, so I'll give you an answer,
this is not stock, it is part of the other e-fan setup, toss it.

Oh have one more question. This black connector was hooked up under the right side of the circuit breaker too. Do you know what it is?

That is the main ground for the CPU. You need that. Should be connected to the battery harness and engine block near the oil filter.

There should be a black wire that runs from that screw with the black connector to the battery, it is one of 4 ground wires that is essential to the computer/efi system
battery to block, not the timing cover, not an accessory bracket, the engine block.
drivers side rear of head to the fire wall
ground wire from the injector harness to the intake or head. This wire may be orange, not sure,
And the wire from the negative battery cable to the screw previously mentioned.
