Anyone have a picture of their 116 vacuum line?

While replacing glowplugs on my 1980 300SD last weekend in subfreezing weather, I brushed against the vacuum line with my forearm and it cracked in 2 places. Not having another w116 to compare it to, I just assumed that what was under the hood was fairly normal (see pics). Anyway, my local parts guy got a good chuckle over the rigjob done by the previous owner (one of MANY). The replacement should arrive tomorrow or Friday, but I know that the proper line doesn't look anything like what's in there now. I've searched for some under-hood shots but have come up short. Does anyone happen to have a picture or two of what it should look like, so I know what other connectors I need to buy when I pick up the replacement? I know for a fact it won't have all those t-connectors and check valves. Thanks a lot.

Thanks a lot. I totally forgot about checking ebay pics. I checked a few more 116 300SDs on eBay and they all have the same setup. Looks like I might be getting the wrong part. We'll see tomorrow. Thanks again.
