If no one tells you, you can install it and do rpm -qa and see for yourself.

yes, X can be removed. If you do choose to remove X, you need to remove the most basic X packages. The reason for this is so that rpm dependencies will take care of the higher level RPMs for you. (So basically attacking RPMs like XFree86, xfs, etc will greatly help in the process of removing X.

PS: I still wonder what on earth was put into the small versions of most distros. They're so bloated to be considered small.
