So close, yet so far.

Ok, so I've remounted my carb, and there's one little problem. I forgot to take pictures of the vacuum hose connection/layout, and I've been able to mostly piece it back together, but there is one connection I'm totally unsure of. The little T connector directly above where the fuel line intake is. What line(s?) goes there? It's the stock E4ME cc Q-jet on a stock 305 engine. It's an 87. Any answers or insight would be great. Thanks again.

The one sticking straight out goes to the air cleaner. The one sticking to the right goes to the choke pull-off (typically doesn't get disconnected when you remove the carb).

Alright, thanks again man. I might have another hose mismatch, but I think that's it.
