Project over the weekend. Need vacuum diagram.

I did a new intake manifold and rebuilt carb over the weekend and was swapping out vacuum lines along the way. Nearly every one of the hard plastic lines snapped multiple times (and a few crumbled to dust in my hand when I touched them). The intake gaskets were so dry they crumbled away and all I had to do was vacuum them up and wipe down the head surfaces. I didn't even have to scrape anything away LOL! Notice the stalactites of carbon all the way down into the lifter valley from the leaking EGR ports!!! Cleaned that up too and all good but...

I got it all back together but the heater/vent/ac won't switch from floor to vent to defrost post-op. I'm missing vacuum to something. Anyone have pictures or vacuum routing diagram? Can't seem to find anything online. I thought all that I had deleted was the emissions, but apparently not. I see the one tiny line going into the cab and that's T'ed into some stuff up on the firewall near the base of the driver's side windshield (I don't know what any of that stuff is).

I have one other small issue of a tiny coolant leak at the thermostat housing, but other than that it's running very good. Love the new "Mountain Man" rebuilt carb. One pump of the pedal to set the choke and she's cranked first time every time since. I had to adjust the main idle a bit but other than that it's all good as delivered.
