Default Magnafuel Prostar EFI FPR, two ports, one leaks fuel

I know this sounds stupid but what am I supposed to put into the open port like at the front (blue section) in this picture, it leaks fuel when trying to start the car:



Is that the port where I'm supposed to screw a barbed fitting into for boost reference, or is the pipe threaded nipple on the side for the boost reference? Do I just buy a pipe plug for the front? Thanks I feel like an idiot.

Got the leak patched up so that's not a problem anymore, but now it's leaking ontop of the rear injector again, jesus christ.

Thats a 1/8npt for a pressure gauge. The boost reference will go on the top side of the diaphram

got a fuel pressure gauge coming tonight so I can actually see what PSI I'm at. Everytime I prime the system, there aren't any leaks, but when I go to start the car a leak always develops somewhere. This is the 5th time pulling the intake/rails off this week alone. Now it's down to my back passenger side fuel injector leaking just under the rail.

About to go crazy.
