Stock 272 with standard trans. Previous owner disconnected the bulk of the vacuum lines, and I'd like to put this back together correctly, but I've been unable to find any factory diagrams. Does anyone know of a source or have photos laying around?

The one photo he took prior to disassembly shows a tee in place (which I have), visible just to the right of center in the first photo. It looks like one side goes through the firewall to the wipers, but where does the 2nd line from that tee go? Also, since the hard line from the manifold heads straight to the fuel pump, is it possible it was originally equipped with a double-action pump? I assumed the double-action fuel pump was only available with auto or OD.
