Anyway, I have a few different questions.
A: how do I properly change the oil in the injection pump?
B: how many fuel lines go to the pump?
There is one line going from the fuel bowl to the pump, but it looks like there are at least two other fuel lines. From what it looks like, there is a spot for a rubber line and a line to thread on right next to the priming plunger. Where are those two lines supposed to lead?
Thanks in advance for any help, I know basically nothing about these cars other than what some quick google searches have turned up!

There is instructions in the Repair links on changing the Oil. On most of them you need to suck it out with a tube attached to something like a Turkey Baster or one of those syringes they use to inject flavors into meat (often had at the 99 cent stores here in S. CA).
When you fill it on the Engine Block side of the Fuel Injection Pump is usually a Banjo Bolt that holds a U bent tube sometimes called a Goose Neck. The excess any over filled oil will come out of the tube.
Also in the Repair Links look up how to test the Pneumatic Governor for vacuum leaks.
