Look up 'Mountains of the Sun' or 'Kalorme' in Shaping of Middle Earth. The maps in SoME also make it clear that this was a seperate continent.

Whether the east-continent remained in the plan or not, the Gates of Morning did.

What made me think that it was removed as well as Valinor was the Rainbow Bridge running from Kalorme to Taniquetil. I mean, the Valar wouldn't leave a secret back way intact.
