Need help identifying melted hoses

Hello ! New FC owner here, ive been going through my project fixing all the fuel and vacuum leaks and i have encountered a couple of melted lines when I took off the upper intake manifold. I drive a N/A 1990 gxl. I have looked far and wide for these line names and i cant seem to find any diagrams that include them anywhere. any help identifying what they are so i can replace them would be greatly appreciated

those lines go to the oil metering pump, look into the oiling system section of the manual.

Was there oil on the manifold? If those lines were broken you would have a mess.

OMP lines have no oil flow

Hi, the OMP lines should have black oil showing in all four lines, yours seem to have none.

I would look at this as a failure of the OMP pump located on the side of the front cover!

Take the time and effort to remove the pump and rebuild it to restore the oil flow to the apex seals!
