1998 vapor canister

My original vapor canister bracket broke off while driving and demolished the canister itself. I bought a used one from Hawks, but now I cant remember how it all goes back together. I have a pic of the canister and the 3 lines that are hanging near the fuel filler neck. Obviously the large hose goes to the large port on the canister, but what about the other two?....One is marked purge and the other is marked tank. The one that says tank has a cap on it....Is that correct...that would leave me with one hose without anywhere to go....

Any suggestions?...or a pic? I couldn't find a diagram of it in the Haynes manual unless i'm not looking good enough

Thank You.

Never messed with my charcoal canister before, but the purge line should be the one that goes from the charcoal to the intake manifold, drivers side valve cover should have a black solenoid thing that feeds into the intake manifold. The solenoid is feed from one of the two fuel lines.
So go under your hood and find the line I'm talking about, then follow it all the way back to your canister, then you should be fine...
