Default EVAP Canister lines help! Diagram?

I sure could use some pics of this guys! The guy who had the car before me must have taken all this stuff out so I had to buy all new stuff. I got a canister, the valve that is by it, the purge valve and all but I need to know where the lines are and where to run them now. A simple sketch would have me on my knees with relief! I see a tube the just stops under the car between the rear seats and fuel tank but is that suppose to be like that or does a line to the canister come off that?. I cannot believe I have looked at all the diagrams and have everything open to look at here and still am clueless!
SO, where does the lines coming out of the canister go to? The ones coming out the top of the fuel tank seem to be all correct but there is 2 that seem to be back a bit for venting purposes but which goes where? I am getting the dang codes and have ever since I bought it but being in Cali they are making me go to a "real" place this year so I cant buy my way out of it this time. Need some help fellas!

Thatdiagram helped to see the coorect placements but I attached some photos so maybe you could tell me if the tube with nothing attached to it is a clean air tube or if this is where my canister and what not hooks into. Theres an under the hood pic as well that has a vac tube that needs to know where it runs to.
any ideas?

The one under the hood goes to the back of the manifold next to the
cam sensor.
The other two pics I guess I'm blind I don't see this loose hose.

Thebrake booster is hooked up behind the manifold, is there a attachement point I need to get? How do I tie into the right place back there?
The hose in back is on the left, it looks like a 1/2 in tube that stops just outside the gap. The bundle is to the right, the loose one is 5-6 inches to the left.

Themiddle pic is of the top of the gas tank and I was wondering which one goes to the EVAc canister. The first pic is showing where all the gas tank lines appear to come out towards the back of the car but there is a hose/tube that just ends (6 inches or so to the left of the bundle)

Maybethe best question is since this is a 2001 trans am does it even HAVE an outside the tank evap canister that the earlier cars had in the driver side rear fender area? Could one of those tubes coming out of the tank already be connected to in inside the tank?

Sorta, it's mounted on the tank on top see pic.

So its all making sense now, it's INSIDE the tank and the middle black connection is the canister. I'll go to the dealership and get a new one. I already have a hatch cut so I will just open it up a bit more to give me access. I can't tell you how much I appreciate the help SREVE, way to be O-Bee-Won Kenobi!

The one near the intake is the purge solenoid.



The canister shouldn't be inside the tank. It's right on top, as seen here, along with the vent solenoid:



Since I most likely need to replace my canister, how did you cut the access panel?

Here's a pic of where it goes.
