Removing rats nest which hoses to keep

OK I searched this last night and could not find it again however if I remember right there is only 3 hoses u have to keep from the rats nest.

1. Fuel pressure regulator

but what are the other 2 (besides the fuel hoses unless those are them)

this is on my 86 base n/a 5spd if that matters...

I am removing everything I dont need (egr, cold start, oil injectors etc)

so what other vac hoses do I need to keep hooked up?

Little black box by the passenger side strut. You can call it a pressure sensor. It is called the boost sensor in the FSM though.
