Default Need help with PVC line assy install

ok....got my pvc valve line today from a member here, I have NO clue how this goes on in relation to my ports or even if I have it together right.

Could someone look at this and tell what goes where if they can??

Thanks in advance

#1 is the actual pvc valve I think. It looks like it could be missing a rubber piece that lets me attach it to a port

#2 this end has a plastic thing, about 5/8" in dia...but it doesn't look like it attaches to anything on my motor

#3 there's an empty spot on this "Y" that should have something attached?? Maybe a line or something? If so where does it go???

Well throw that hose assy in the parts bin.

Connect Number 1 to 3
Connect Number 2 to pass valve cover
use 3/8 hose or -6

The correct way that hose assembly goes is:

1- goes to passenger side intake port, you are missing a small hose that connects to it.

2- back driver side valve cover

3. is missing a hose that connects to the passenger side valve cover.

This hose assem you have is for 99-02 f-body valve covers.. The Pass side f-body covers have 2 ports on them. One for the missing hose in your pic & one for a hose that goes to the throttle body. The driver side has a grommet that the #2 pushes into..

Wasn't even paying attention to the driverside cover in his pics, sorry.. You method for his covers would be correct.. He just needs to cap off the pass side intake port.

Thanks everyone, so I guess it would be best to sell the PVC line and hook my stuff up like the post below? This would work correct?

if you hook it up that way dont forget you have a vacuum port below number 2 that needs to be capped. in the picture the teal hose goes to it
