Dude, the red tube comes out of the TB itself. Its not in the manifold. The manifold has only one port in it on the passenger side (highlighted blue in that pic).

Here is a pic of my BBK I just got done painting last week. Notice there is a port in the BBK manifold there where the blue is highlighted.

I don't have the red port coming from the TB because I took it out and blocked it off because I have to run that red vacuum line all the way to the inlet of my procharger.

You don`t want oil or hot oil vapor in your intake so cap off the valve cover and the throttle body. And then put a metco valve cover breather on the oil fill tube. I did this and the car runs much better and the intake is super clean, no more oil gunk! And no more fouled TR6s!
