Default '77 T/A Vacuum Line Routing?

Does anyone have a 1977 Pontiac Service Manual? If so, could you post a picture from the manual that shows the correct routing of the emissions/vacuum lines? This would be for the base 400 engine with auto trans (in an F-body).

I would greatly appreciate it

How about a few pics of an original/correct engine compartment with the air cleaner removed?

I posted these for somone else a while ago. This is from the 78 manual. Not sure if they're the same.

Great, thanks for the replies!

Anyone know what the "EGR backpressure transducer" is or what it looks like (from post #4)? Is it like a check valve?

The Service Manual doesn't say much about it.
It appears to be an inline type of filter.

It may be a 'backfire' type of device to keep reverse pressure from going the other way?
