What are these leaks??

I bought my 1995 v mount FD pre modded, and I have been having insane boost leaks, I did a smoke leak test and I found 3 main open valves or nipples, can someone with good rotary knowledge please give me an understanding of what these might connect too?
The black hose is connected to my boost solenoid, but there is an open valve next to it leaking tremendously , I know I知 dumb I know I知 annoying you guys but please if someone could help me locate what this is exactly?

From my understanding it seems like a pressure hose should be connected here but where does it connect too?

Same as I said in your other thread.... give 100% more effort than you're giving and you will be able to help yourself with things like this. You are not doing well. Look at the vacuum diagram and figure it out

and sometimes it takes as much effort to chastise people as it does to help them. i know i've been in that place before when it feels to easy to tell someone to help themself but the search function on this site sucks big D. as well a lot of pictures over the last 20 years have gone bye bye.

It's for the turbo precontrol actuator, which was likely wired up for non sequential turbo operation. that picture isn't the greatest.

Not my intent but starting from zero doesn't have to be trained on spoon feeding. It builds bad habits and evolves people into being helpless. Posing a question that showed you made an effort to figure it out but could not is better than just doing nothing and waiting around for an answer.

I'm handing him a fishing rod and all he seems to want is the fish. Even after my statements I still offer direction as to where the Information can be found... and look, he found it and asked for clarification.

he does make some solid points, you gotta learn how to read the diagrams based on the pictures present. the picture you posted is of the primary turbo inlet so that would get you in the ballpark of those ports being for the actuators at the bottom of the picture.
