Piecing back together my FD

Hey guys, I just recently got this FD( not running) and it pretty much came with a box of parts. I've got a few things sorted out but I really could use some help. Most of the things I figured out from searching. One picture attached shows a tube coming of the intake manifold circled where does it go? There is also the mystery hose picture which is the only hose i have left. I got the car to start but whenever I leave off the gas it makes a burping noise from that tube. I attatched the mystery hose to it but it didn't really make any difference. So my question is what does it go to? Or is it a dump tube of some kind.






Next is some kind of vacuum line underneath the passenger floor mat.



Thanks a ton for your help guys!

Cant really tell from the photo, but next to the manifold there there are two pipes; the upper one goes straight to the airbox, and the lower one is short and goes to the air pump. That's what im guessing from that first photo.

Other two im not too sure about but i'll try to figure it out. (Little late right now, sorry)

Good luck!

the one by the intake should run into a hose into air box, as for the one by the floor i think it has a hole there for it to exit thru firewall, some kinda vent? not sure what the other hose is

the hose is an ac drip tube just stick it through the firewall. The hard pipe just plug it since you have an aftermarket intake.
