Three pipes on the front of the SU.

Far left (driver side) is fuel in. The top two are fuel overflow (top left) and breather (top right).

The very small pipe where next to the manifold, above the butterfly is the vac advance onto the dizzy.

Bottom left is fuel in, middle is fuels over flow and top left is breather.

The photo with the rubber pipes is

Fuel supply
Fuel return

To find out which is which spin the engine over, which ever spews petrol out is the supply the other is the return.

Vac advance - skinny pipe

This is the water pipe that comes up from the top of the water rail

Fairly sure that goes onto the manifold at the back.
