To the left on the bottom I know another line goes in. But the middle nipple hanging out? Vacum?

Single wire to a dash lamp when the prop slides to one side or the other in the case of a brake failure

Look for a single black wire dangling under the booster somewhere

Yep. That's actually the switch in the proportioning valve, plumbed to the master cylinder and then to the brakes.

Low pressure switch, which is normally open. When the shuttle valve moves due to drop in pressure the valve moves completing ground circuit and the dash light goes on.

Should be a brown electrical wire with a rubber boot on it that plugs into it. It goes to the brake warning light in the instrument panel...
