dual tanks problem

I have a 76 f150 ranger, it has dual tanks, aux and main.. i am only running the main tank because the tank selector valve has gasoline pouring out of one of the nipples? there is 3 outlets on it for hoses but only one has a hose going to it. the one on top shoots gas out when switched to the aux. tank.. please help i know a line needs to be on it but idk where it would go from there?

i have dual tanks on my truck which is also a 76 so i will asume you have the electric operated selector. on mine there are 2 hose nipples on one side and one on the oposite
suply from mani and aux go into the 2 on one side and "out" to engine is the one by itself

a picture of your situation would be helpful

D5TZ-9189-B .. Fuel Tank Selector Valve & Solenoid Assembly / Applications: 1975/79 F100/350.

D5TZ-9A050-A .. Fuel Tank Selector Switch-also changes the dash fuel gauge from one tank to another, mounts into heater control panel / Applications: 1975/79 F100/350.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1973/74's had a manually operated selector valve on the floor, adjacent to the drivers side of the seat. The heater control mounted switch (D3TZ-9A050-A) only changes the dash fuel gauges.
