The little pipe is the return to sump...theres a small bung above the sump line in the engine block below the exhaust manifold side towards the back. The large pipe at the bottom is the vent to atmos..run a large pipe down to ground and cable tie it to your roll bar to secure it. The two on the top...1 goes to a hole you have to drill out in your rocker cover...take off your cover and you will see a round circle cast into it at the back..its even got its on gasket formed ready for you...just drill it out and fit a peice of pipe into the hole for you to attach the breather hose to. The 2nd pipe goes to your firetrap/kidney box....this is a small metal box underneith the inlet manifold, it has the long pipe that would have gone to your air box originaly....remove the pipe, insert a slightly small tube to enable the smaller bore hose to fit, run the hose down from the breather tank thru the inlet manifold and onto the pipe. If your running a standard air box just blank off that connection on the box. Job done.

well it makes sense as your venting the top of the engine then....ie upgrading the system to which is the intention of the whole thing. Its dead easy to do chap if your unsure.
