The other removals are correct, but this one is wrong. A Received:
header field should have exactly one (unquoted, non-comment)
semicolon: before the date-time at the end of the line. To quote
rfc5321:
Stamp = From-domain By-domain Opt-info [CFWS] ";"
FWS date-time
...and there are no other explicit semicolons in the syntax.
