UIM front vacuum lines question

Hi everyone.
I have had to replace the Air thermosensor and therefore remove the UIM.
I have the suspect that the 4 front vacuum hoses haven't been reconnected in the corresponding nipples during reinstallation.
I have 2 questions:
1) Does it matter what nipple they go into? Aren't they all vacuum regardless?
2) I have printed the diagram. I understand it, but it looks nothing like the rats nest. How do I figure out which hose is which?
Thank you,
Giovanni

Where those go doesn't matter - they all go to the exact same spot.

Read my UIM removal guide -

Thank you, I thought it wouldn't matter, but as a newbie owner, I am very paranoid around this car.
I guess I'm good this way then.
