Vacuum line layout for '54 Olds

I have reason to believe the vacuum lines on my '54 are run incorrectly. I have a shop manual, but I can't find any diagram showing which lines go where.

Can anyone post a diagram or tell me where the lines go?

From another thread, dealing with the same problem.

Here is a pic I took of the vacuum lines on my car:

........
Line A = Sends manifold vacuum to the inlet of the vacuum pump. Should be another line, sending it to the wiper motor.

Line B = Manifold vacuum for the power brakes = As it should be.

Line C = Vacuum originating from the "ported" source, at the carb, for use with vacuum advance only. The other line should go from the wiper motor to that "other" port on the vacuum pump.
