Would someone please take some pictures of the brake booster vacuum line routing on a stock 79 LUV?

I'm having trouble figuring out where it goes. :?:

Camera not working right, but I think I can talk you thru it.

I have a 1979. Just went out and looked at it.

There is a steel line that comes off the booster, curves around to the firewall. It then mates up to a rubber vacuum line, which goes directly over to the port on the left side of the intake manifold.

Thanks arty,

I know where the ends need to go. I'm trying to find the route it takes and any place that the hardline mounts to the firewall with brackets. I've got two brackets but I cannot find the holes in the firewall since I painted it really good.

I found two brackets. One mounts to the heater diverter valve. The other bracket is below the heater hose bracket, about 10 inches below the drip edge on the firewall, and just about 3 to 4 inches off of center to the right.
