A while back my fuel line popped of my carb and spilled gas on my intake manifold while doing routine maintenance. Upon starting the truck the gas ignited. It burned the back left of my 454. It burned up my distributor and a whole mess of vacuum lines. I replaced the distributor but I am completely lost as far as fixing the lines. I tried usin the diagram on the top of the air. Breather to tr best of my ability. Now the truck runs fine. It my defrosters don't work and I can't figure out how to reattach the hoses for my cruise control. I have the 49 state emission system with the two air pumps. Any pics or advice would really help me. By the way it's a 86 c20 with a 454

The Cruise hose is wrapped up with the Cruise wiring and goes back into the cab below the fuse panel.
There is a hose running from the engine vaccum at the back of the intake to the "plastic ball" on the drivers side, the AC vac uses this "ball"
