Unhappy 2000 Dodge Neon Vacuum Lines

I replaced my head gasket and intake gaskets on my 2000 dodge neon and now have it all back together and cannot find where the opposite end of the vacuum lines connect. I know they start at back and side of engine. any help or visuals would be greatly appreciated! thanks

That one from the throttle body goes to the purge solenoid.

It runs rough, or it idles up and down...or both? That idle problem sounds like a vacuum leak. Are there any tears in the accordion tube of the intake?
