Dashpot plays NO role in smog test. They won't test/check it. They look around for open vacuum ports and hose that don't go anywhere. They look at connectors and broken things.
They probably won't even check the timing, they will check the idle speed. If its too high, they'll fail you for the timing cause they could not check it.
Sounds like good deal on the cat.

Egr is something they will look out (hoses and connected or not.).
Test #s tells if all the systems work.
