The hard pipe connects the the vertical nipple on the oil filler neck. The horizontal nipple on the oil filler neck connects to the UIM and has a valve in the line.

Run a hose from the hard line that runs across the engine block to the bottom nipple. The top nipple gets a hose to the upper intake manifold with a pcv valve inline.

When you run the fuel pressure test, you will hear a hissing from the fuel pressurizing the lines. If you expose the rails like this when testing:

You'll be sure to notice anything leaking.
