R107: Can someone look under their hood real quick?

[350SL4spd]

Hi,
I just put my new motor in my 380SL and have three question marks as to where things hook up: (They weren't hooked to anything when I bought the car...)

1) There is a large grey vac line that rund down the top of the firewall from behind the brake booster. What does it attach to?

2) There is a Bosch fuel control unit (of some kind) just to the right of the ICV, above the thermostat. It has two fuel lines on top and a red vac line at the bottom. On the top there is a what looks like a "U" shaped vac connector. Does yours have a vac line and where does it go?

3)Where does the electric for the smog pump hook up? I have two wires (to a two-prong plug) out the right side of the smog pump, but can't find where they hook into the harness?

Thanks alot!! I'll post pics of her when I get a chance!

Where is the smog pump?

Smog pump is the pump on the lower right . It will the belted pump right under the alternator. It should be the fan belt the furthest forward. I'll try to post some pics tom morning or later tonight. it's all so clear in my haed as I jst cleaned every single bolt in the bloody engine rebuilding it...
Thanks for looking Rick!

Here are the pics:

1) Large grey vac hose running along firewall, has bolt in end in the pic. Where does it go!?

2)Vac hose circled on fuel reg thingie. Where should the line to that come from?!

3)Smog pump connector pictured. Where does it hook into the wiring harness?! (Smog pump can be seen behind it, below the alternator.)

Fourth pic is me just showing off my clean engine . Now we see how long I can keep it like that.

Can anyone help a brother out with these questions?

OK, here are pics withj your answers:

- The fist pic is one you posted for the Vacuum line coming from behind the Master cylinder. If you follow the arrow down under the firewall screw you'll see a ball like fitting mounted on the rear of the last intake runner on the passenger side of he engine. See the second pic to complete the visual.

- Third pic shows the hooked rubber vac line on the "fuel reg thingie". It appears to be an overflow tube or breather tube as it's connected to...nothing.

- Forth pic shows the connecter for the Smog pump. My connecter/wire ran along another wire (attached with nylon ties) and went up and under the coolant overflow tank. I dismounted the tank to trace. The connecter is bundled with a few other wires.

Hope this helps and let us know how it works out.

Note: I uploaded to Yahoo but it doesn't allow other to link to. I bit the bullet and resized and lowered quality of the pics to work here.
