Fuel hose connections & knock sensor

I need some help guys, I have come to putting the three fuel hoses on at the engine and the markings that were on them have become unclear. These travel side by side along under the car, if someone could tell me which one goes where exactly (left, right and upper connection) I would be most greatfull.

Also another problem is I cannot find the plug for the knock sensor anywhere in the engine bay, me and my mate looked all over today but couldn't see it. I'm assuming that it definately does need the knock sensor but was doubting myself when the plug was nowhere to be seen.?????

Thanks for any help on these issues guys, I am so close to starting the car up after a year and a half and would realy like to get going for newyear.

You can't find the wire harness knock sensor plug or the plug that comes off knock sensor it self?

If I remember correctly right is feed middle is return and left is vent.

Its the wire harness knock sensor plug that I can't find, I have the wire and plug coming from the knock sensor from the housing, just need to find the harness plug.

The knock sensor is a single wire clip, if you can`t find it most likely it broke off. you may need to look for a loose wire near the front of the oil fill neck. I believe the wire is all white with a Grey insulation. I will double check my car tonight before confirming.

I cannot find a wire anywhere that could be for the knock sensor. Does anyone know if it's sweet to just run a wire from the knock sensor plug at the sensor and patch it to the regular knock sensor connection wherever that is? Makes sense that it should be just the same as the original plug.
