tb -> intake spacer

yesterday i went to the junkyard and found a S5 intake that i plan to put on my rebuilt s5 block. ill be keeping all the s4 emissions stuff except the egr (the car is a '87). unfortunately the spacer between the throttle body and the manifold was gone, and i know that it is different from the s4 spacer. since ill need redo all of the vacuum hose plumbing, my question is does anybody know how the spacer routes vacuum? i know some of the lines get vacuum from before the throttle plates and some get vacuum after. wich holes do wich in the spacers (specifically the s5 spacer)?

i realize it might not even matter but i was curious if anyone knew.

When doing an S5 manifold swap, you keep both the S4 TB and S4 spacer.
