Default Escort RS 1.6 turbo water pipes

Hi everyone, i am a new member in this forum, i work as a mechanic and i own my car service. I recently bought a RS turbo 1.6 from 1989 year and i am new with Ford.
It is a vehicle with some of the pipes missing , in the unfinished restoration process .
I have done most of the pipes from air, fuel, but i have few i cant find the right position.
The question is about the water feed pipes on the turbo, i cant find where they should be connected.
If someone can help with pictures or explanation i`ll be grateful.
THX, makjazz.

water pipes on turbo, 1 attaches to the top radiator hose and the other goes to the radiator above the bottom radiator hose.

Big THX friend.
I dont have the upper radiator hose, so i could not see the water source.
I cant find original hose here so i`ll probably install T-split with 8mm outlet for
turbo feed.
For the lower turbo water hose i found the small connection on the radiator.

I some how managed to connect every hoses of water, breather, fuel, turbo and
front mounted inter-cooler.
Found problems on the supply voltage of the engine ECU, solved.
Now i can start the car, but it is running OK until pressure is low and cold start valve running.
At the moment when the pressure is rising close to 2.5 bar, injectors start to run,
in the same moment engine stalls, reason is overfueling.
I had removed the cold start injector, and is its running and spraying OK.
But i think that the amount of the fuel from injectors is enormous.
If i hold the gas pedal at half, engine maybe will start to work, but overfuelling all the time, and will eat 2 liters fuel for minute working at half pedal.
I have 2 questions:
1.Violet "speed sensing relay" is clicking when i crank, after the car starts is "ON".
Is this OK?
2.I cant find out, is the overfueling caused by KE-jetronic head problem or bad injectors?
Injectors maybe have different patterns but spraying, cant believe they can cause such problem
