It should be pretty easy to figure out which one went where, as they are molded to fit to ONLY one oil injector, but if you look in the FSM, I believe there is a diagram.

Scalliwag sells a set of stainless steel ones if you'd like something nice that will definately last.

oil metering lines

i am starting to think they dont make much of a difference. upon installing a new engine in mine, the service manual didnt seem to mention anything about which goes where. anyway, i know i got at least two of them where they should go, the other two, well i will just have to see.

What can I say? Oil/vaseline whatever works. I'm only halfway thru the manual and having fun.

The fsm shows where each oil line goes where on the metering pump. That said, it does not matter if it'll reach from the injector to the pump. They all meter the same amount of oil.
