water hose connection help please...

Okay I am almost done putting the motor back together and I am stuck on the water hoses. I have a single turbo no emissions setup and I tried looking through the manual 3 times over and cannot see where they go.

I see that the port on the rear iron goes to the top back on the throttle body. I am not sure where the line off of the water pump goes and there is a port and line coming off the middlie iron under the throttle body that I am not sure about. i assume one of them goes to the open port on the bottom of the throttle body which I thought that the hose from the water pump would connect to but that still leaves a 5" hose off the middle iron to connect somehwere.
I bought the car with the motor out and the guy I bought the car from had the bottom port on throttle body blocked off and looked like the water pump was going right to the back iron.

Any help would be greatly appreciated as this is the only thing holding me up from putting the intake manifold back on.

thanks,

Okay I figured out the coolant line issue and now I am confused as it appears that I have a vent on the middle iron below the filler neck area. I thought only the FC had this or am I looking at the wrong nipple?

There is probably a crankcase vent on the middle iron just like the FC's (basically, same housing). You can either cap it or vent it to the intake and/or catch tank.

Thanks for the input. I figured those were my options it was just weird because before i posted I searched and it seemed like the FD didn't have the same middle iron vent that the FC did. The FC has the engine mount holes on it.
