Distributor Vacuum Control Switch

OK......I have a question about hoses and routing to and from the above mentioned switch.

I have a 350, 4bbl, with factory air. I have a service manual also. The manual, good as it is, shows several pictures of the routing of the hoses that connect to this switch but none of them is for a 350, 4bbl, auto transmission.

The Vac Control swith has 3 ports coming off the side of the shaft and one on the very top of the can. One of the 3 on the shaft goes to the back of the carburator. Another goes to the front drivers side of the carburator, The third is a short hose that loops from the middle port of the shaft to the top port on the can.

Understanding that this is difficult to describe and a first hand explaination would be much easier, can anyone tell if these hoses are on the correct locations?

I really question the short hose that goes from the Vac Cont. Sw. shaft to the top of the switch can???

The write up in the service manual probably tells a knowledgable person what I am trying to figure out but since I am not automative literate I need a little help.
