They usually hook up to a nipple under the carborator. Look for a small black hose that slips onto a metal nipple. They sometimes tuck into the wiring harness to head into the cabin for the HVAC system.

the vacme hose is coming out from round black ball about the size of a grapefruit it has oxford written on it.
