tri-power plumbing question

It's me again, with the same question. But now I have a picture to refer to! the question is: There are two holes on the back of this intake. It is intended for use in a 67 Fairlane GT/A convertible (1 of 2112!). It has power brakes. So we just need to nail down how these two holes need to be plumbed. When I asked before, my thoery was confirmed: The smaller hole (a) on the upright of the carb riser gets routed down to the larger hole (b), then the larger hole supplies the vacuum for the booster. There is no filler neck hole on the front of this manifold, so the valve cover breather acts as a crankcase vent. If this IS true, now that you see it, where do I find those fittings to make this dream a reality? Additionally, I would think that the one rubber-grometted valve cover hole (c) gets plugged? You can see that it's a "stock" tri-power setup. Sorry about the redundancy, but it is time to be 100%.

Cheers
George
P.S. Write me to get my list of parts that are for sale for the following vehicles: 60-67 Falcons, 65/66/67 Fairlanes, 65 Comets/Cyclones. It's not a big list, I just need to clear garage space. A lot of just regular parts, but some rare and great things.
