Give the download another go as it take F'in aes due to the size.
On the carbs you have a top rail (breather) lower rail (fuel supply) and then the vacuum running from the top (small diameter pipe). You should always fit the airbox to the carbs while they are off the bike and then fit the carbs and airbox together.
This may seem odd but it is the correct way and twice as fast as taking the airbox off leaving the carbs on, the air box is a mare to fit after the carbs are on.

The petrol tap has fuel and vacuum, the conection under the tank is an over flow from the fuel cap, this just runs thro a pipe down to the rear right of the motor. The breather from the carbs runs up the air box, end is open.
