88 turbo. hard vac lines by ACV: where to?

on an 88 turbo, there are three hard vac lines that come around from the back and go to things on the ACV or whatever.. the question i have is where does the other side of the lines go to? as in: what are these damned things running? i just blocked off my ACV and at current, i have the passenger side most one (that turns down at the end) capped, the middle one goes to a nipple somewhere and the one nearest the motor i have T'd into my BOV line. the car runs this way, but i'd kinda like to know where the lines are going to see if i can just cap them all off. i'm trying to get as clean a block as i can. i have many components removed already, but ive still got all my vacum solenoids and such. i want to pull all the ones i dont need, so if anyone can tell me what they all go to also...
thanks.

They run over to the solenoids by the oil fill tube.

which line goes to which solenoid?
i guess im just lazy.. =)

maybe tomorrow i will hook up baloons to the ends of the lines then disconnect the solenoids one by one and blow through the lines and see which baloon blows up. hahahahahaha


anyone know what the solenoids do? (i mean specific colors)

2 lines go to the relief solenoid valve (it is blue) - one is the air supply (comes from the tube sticking out lower right of the round diaphragm thingy sticking out the side of the ACV (4 screws hold it on), the other the line to the valve from the solenoid (goes to the round thingy on the bottom of the valve). The remaining one, to the top of the ACV, goes to the switching solenoid valve (gray), it is vacuum. Hope this helps.
