BOV surge need help hooking vacuum line up.

Hey guys. I just got this 82 GSL with a swapped 13b turbo and I was looking at the engine and noticed that there not a vacuum line connected to the BOV and since this is my first turbo owned car I'm not entirely sure how to hook it up.

Here are some Pics of whats going on.

That blue line is plugged and teed and feeds into the thing in the third picture.

That looks like a Fuel regulator..
You could try to T it with the BOV as they both need Vacuum..But IF you can do it try to get dedicated vacuum for each part.
