They are labelled mate.

w = wastegate
R = airbox
C = compressor

R - Recirculate - goes into the airbox to be used again.

Hmmmm, now that’s interesting. My amal valve on my Escort Cosworth has only two tubes. The tube from the actuator is piped into the compressor tube via a “T” piece and then only one tube goes into the amal valve. The other tube from the amal valve is vented back to the air box.

P8 valve is totally different and yours is piped correctly.
