Welcome aboard thirdgen.org.
To the best of my knowledge, there are no "vacuum" fittings on the exhaust. The factory did use an "Air Injection Reaction" or "A.I.R" system, but that pumps air into the exhaust.
Also to the best of my knowledge, no one makes long tube headers with the A.I.R. fittings. You could get long tube headers and modify them to add the A.I.R. tubes.
The only manufacturer-certified emissions-legal headers available for our cars are shorty headers. Hooker 2055HKR and Hedman 68471 come to mind. Edelbrock also has their "TES" for our cars http://www.edelbrock.com/automotive_..._tes_app.shtml . The bad news is '85 has a bolted flange to the cat, and the "good" headers use a slip-fit connection to the cat. Meaning your "direct bolt-in" desire is pretty much impossible to meet.
Direct bolt-in is absolutely impossible to meet with full length headers.
