Need pics of engine

I was trying to find an engine shot with everything assembled but without the cover on. It's been so long since I took it apart, I forgot where the little vacuum canister thing attaches (with the yellow stripe on the hose). Also, if anyone knows where this long vent tube connects that comes up over the left side valve cover (driver reference), I can't figure out how to stick it back in. I'm thinking I need to take the belly pan off so I can see where it goes unless someone has a shot of it so I can feel around for it.

I've got my 4.4 open at the moment (doing valve cover gaskets). If we're talking about the same thing it gets bolted onto the fuel rail/coil wiring harness bracket. Its a UK car so don't hold me to it that its the same!!

I'll take a pic in a little while and upload it..

That's perfect, thanks. I found a thread on that, but all the pictures were missing. I guess I missed that article when I was looking through that section. Fail on my part.

That is a little better shot, thanks. So does anyone know how to get that vent tube back in, or am I going to have to remove the belly pan?
