My intake is strange. It's "snorkeled" but the only thing snorked is the intake on top of the motor. Rest of the lines are just hanging loose. Could that be a problem?

Can someone post a picture for me? I need to see a stock airbox assembly. Also maybe highlight where the MAP sensor is?

There is one vacuum line going to the airbox. It comes from the little vacuum distribution thing.
Mines "modified" I haven't gotten around to fixing it up proper but I got rid of a bunch of those lines. I'm out on a job and that's the best pic for now but if you have an open vacuum line going to or coming from here block it off.

Here's my intake with all the little lines all over the place. Plugged all of those lines with birthday candles. It still smoked. What are these lines for? Where should they be?
Also there are no lines going to the MAP sensor that I can see. Just wires. (MAP is what that green connector plugs in to on the firewall, right?)

So all of those lines are vacuum lines? the only thing that should be filtered and open is the main intake? what about the line coming off of the top of the head? behind it is the oil fill cap?
