Default vacuum harness picture help

ok on the passenger side firewall corner where the thermactor solenoid is, there is a bundle of vacuum lines hokoed up toa central hub of4 or 5 lines. I dont know which ones go hooked up, but I have one that goes to my EGR and it appears that another may have gone somewhere else. anyone have a stock setup that they can tell me where these vacuum lines go from this bundle I would really appreciate it. i think this is one of the locations that is causing some of my problems.
Thanks
Chris

It's kind of hard to read but the writing on the left says "to back of intake" and the other says "egr"



This one shows where the line that goes to the back of the intake attaches

AWESOME! I think I messed up because I hooked up the white vacuum to my EGR. all the other vacuum lines are gone except that white one and it looked like it went to the EGR so thats where I plugged it in. Where is the white vacuum supposed to go? what is that device that is next to it, I dont have that on my car

in the picture above, does anyone know what the white vacuum line is plugging into? or the other black vacuum that goes all the way to the bottom right of the screen?

As stated by 50Trippin, it's part of the smog equipment (emissions).

The white vacuum line goes to the Air Diverter Valve.
The black vacuum line goes to the Air Bypass Valve.

my car didnt have the smog equipment when I bought it. so there was nothing hooked up to that vacuum harness. Am i getting a vacuum leak from there? also the white vacuum cable that comes from the middle is hooked up to my EGR. does that matter or do I need to hook up the black one to the EGR for it to work properly??

ok let's say you look at it from a top view and point the empty one to the bottom/left... the right/bottom and middle are the thermactor lines... they should be plugged with a screw if you don't have the smog equipment. the top/left goes to the back of the intake, the top right goes to the EGR. clearer?
