If you make a copy of your flows file (if it is important then you should have a backup anyway) then you can safely delete that section (and one of the commas around it). Restart node-red and see what happens. If all is then well then fine, if it introduces more problems then you can copy the original back, restart node red again and you will be back where you started.
