Later 1.8DX engine from a sportline

Im puting a 1.8DX engine into my caddy. It has the hydraulic head with the vacuum hose outlet at the rear. Does anyone have pics or can they help me out with where all the vacuum hoses connect please.
The engine that I am using came from a later cabby sportline.

First Golf, lots of work. I've started so I'll finish!

The pipe from the back of the head between cyinders 3 and 4 (Air supply for the air shroud injectors) goes to the rubber boot attached to the throttle body.

If you don't have the connector in the rubber boot you can just cap the end of the pipe coming out of the head as I know rubjonny says it does not make much differance so not really needed.
