I am re-installing the marauder engine after a rebuild, and have it almost all done, but i can't find the pictures i took of the vacuum connections. 
I need to know what lines attach to the canister purge valve mounted on  the cowl, i just don't know which goes on top and which one goes on the  bottom. i know the tiny one goes on the very bottom but i mean the two  larger ports.
I also need to know what hooks up to the distribution block mounted on  the firewall  behind the intake. I need to know what hooks to the top  barb and the barb that points to the passenger side on said block, and  also where the long sliver barb on the back of the upper  intake  manifold itself runs, perhaps to the that distro block? 
TIA.

Got this from a Ford mechanic. It's the panther specific vacuum diagram. Hope this helps.

Black on top, white on bottom. 
Black line goes to the fitting under the throttle body thats cast into the upper manifold.
Everything else is self-explanatory based on how the vacuum lines are custom bent for exact fit.

ok last question. this a/c  line isn't in the vacuum diagram. it is a 1/4 barb, and the distro block is a 3/8. so im wondering if it even connects to the disto block or some where else that i'm not seeing? i think it connects to the distro block because its right next to it, but the difference in size it throwing me off. i don't remember removing any adapters or anything. 
i if someone would snap a pic it would really help me out. thanks

? My car has been molested too many times. I honestly don't recall if that's the stock set up but it appears to be.

Well it does. It fits in there. Its just really snug. But it's the only free vacuum port and it the right length to connect to it. So if the shoe fits, as they say.....
