Exclamation Where do these hoses go?

Hello
I was polishing the Upper intake manifold and the tubing over the winter.
I did take pictures to where everything went but my cell died. So now I dont know where a few hoses go.
Any help would be most appreciated.
First is the over all pic. Then there a big nipple on the UIM on the front. And another one going to I believe the boost controler with some kind of filter.

The one with the filter is your MAP sensor. That's one of the main sensors for the ECU. There's a nipple on the back firewall side of the UIM that it plugs into, no biggie there.

The large nipple on front of the UIM that you're pointing to is for the stock PCV system. It goes to the oil fill neck with a PCV valve in-line. Most people cap it off and cap the nipple on the oil neck off, that's how Mazda did it in the 95 cars. The other nipple on the oil fill neck, stock, goes to the primary turbo inlet. Since you're single turbo, you may want to run a catch can setup - do some reading on that, you have to have some sort of solution for PCV. You can't cap it off and you can't just leave it vented to atmosphere.

Ohhh! thats where those go lol

And that big nipple where im pointing that was the PCV. And i can use that for a catch can?
Im going to do some reading on this.
And I guess I have to cap off all the other nipples that are not being used. Know of a way to cap them? or just better to buy the caps?
Thanks Dale!
Been a big help.

Ok!
So I was just reading up some.
That nipple i was pointing to goes to the catch can, then from the can to a nipple located on the oil filler?
Theres a lot of tutorials, but are a little vag on the details.
Im going to do this later in the year. Ive only started the car once in the last 18months.
So that can give me some time.

The nipple on the UIM that you're pointing to needs to be capped up. Read my thread on vacuum caps and vacuum lines, you need good EPDM caps from McMaster-carr that can take the heat.

The nipples on the *oil fill neck* go to the catch can. I run a Jaz mini catch can, it's designed for go-carts. The big thing you want is a can with a filter on the top - the PCV system has to breathe, if you just run the lines to a sealed can, the system will pressurize and you'll get oil smoke coming out of the exhaust as that pressure finds a way out, through the turbo.
