Default F%#@...manifold swap problems

well high mileage has taken its toll on my vacuum lines. almost every one of the connectors har dry rotted and this explains my shitty idle. not to mention the oil pressure sending unit snapped as well. there is a y connector in hte back behind the manifold that i have no idea what it connects, all my hoses are undone and i cant remember what went where. does anyone have a picture or a document that could show me how everything goes back in?

I used a large hose as a coupler, and butcheted my PCV back into shape when my y-connector took a ****. Here's a pic, you can see the Y on it's side at the back of the manifold.

LS1howto.com has more pics in the LS1 to LS6 PCV swap section. Probably has some in the manifold swap section as well.
