Question on turbo vacuum lines

Is there anyone that can get me a few pics of the vacuum line set-up on a Ty turbo? I was doing a repair on my Ty yesterday and broke one of the elbows on the vacuum lines so I had to replace it. Upon closer study, it appears I may have one nipple that has no plug and no line on it that leads to nowhere. I just need to make sure I have my lines set back up properly. The closer-in on the pics the better, like I said, just need the routing of the vacuum lines. Thanks!

FYI the bottom nipple on the boost solenoid doesnt do anything, if thats what you're referring to

Thank you very much for the timely response! I have it hooked up like that now, but I will go find me some silicone line tomorrow to upgrade my lines as the stuff on there now is getting old. I am pretty sure it is still factory stuff on there. Thank you again!

Be careful about going into boost with old lines and brittle elbows connected to the boost solenoid. If there is a crack in one of the elbows, then you will run the risk of overboosting and blowing up your engine.
