hello i just cleaned carbs on an xj600 1990

problem is now i want to put tank on and fire her up

but there is 3 tubes from the carb on airbox side and one vent tube from other side

so i got 4 tubes and only 2 holes on the petrol tap does anyone know if i am missing a part or can anyone tell me how these tubes are routed as i cant find a picture on the haynes manual

been looking further and the vent tube on engine side fits into smaller hole on petrol tap

so do i need a 4 way splitter so main petrol tube splits and feeds the 3 tubes between the carbs ?

on my yzf 750 there is four pipes, one smaller diameter than the rest this is a vacuum and has to be connected to the tank.

the middle fat one is the petrol and also has to be connected to the tank and the other two are breathers and go nowhere
