One goes to the black pipe that routes under the fuel rail (should be just an elbow to the black metal pipe), and the other is a pipe that runs under the dizzy to the back of the engine and attaches to the recirc valve. A third larger one should be the vacuum connection for the brake servo.

Actually, just had a look at mine, there are three connectors. One is the black metal pipe, the other goes to the recirc valve, and the last one connects to the charcoal tank pipes, theres a clip on the fan cowl to hold it. I've taken a photo, I'll upload it in a bit.

And yes, the one to the charcoal tank has got a bolt in it, I know. My non return valves have broken, and its £42 to replace them! So blanked off keeps the boost up for now.
