Default B18B1 into a '93 civic si...hopefully the last post to get it finished

Ok, I'm about |-| <--that close to getting my b18b1 swap finished, and I've got a couple of (hopefully) easy questions.

First, the little elbow valve on the left (drivers) side of the intake manifold...what, if anything, should that be connected to? I can't find anything open to run a hose to.

Second, I have a hose coming from my vacuum with no place to plug it in, it's very small, it is located on the right side of the engine bay and attached to the firewall. I will take some pictures and upload them when I get back from taking a friend to his doctors appointment, so in an hour or so I should have them up.

Finally...this will seem like a tard question but what's the easiest way to get the gear oil into the tranny. It's a pain in the *** for me to get under the car because I have to jack it like 3 ft off the ground, but I can't see anything from the top where I could fill it. It's a gsr tranny if that makes any difference.

As always any and all help is very appreciated, it has been a royal pain in the *** trying to get this swap done, every time I think I've got everything I need I have to go buy something else and wait a week for delivery and of course there's no acura dealership where I live and the honda dealership knows nothing about swaps and marks everything up by like 10% over acura prices to order it from them.

well if you are talking about the big elbow coming out of the intake on top towards the firewall it is for the brake booster (any other vacum lines on the intake you can just cap off) the little one coming off of the firewall releases pressure from the gas tank (you can just leave it as is or run it to the charcoal canister under the battery if you still have yours). as for putting oil in the tranny just take out the speed sensor from up top towards the back (has a three prong plug going to it) it is one 10mm bolt. also don't put gear oil in the tranny get Honda mtf or regular 10w30 motor oil and use that.
