Heres a couple of pictures to help you out. Not exactly your setup as mine are left and right instead of up and down.

edit: in the second picture the right hose is going to the thermostat housing and the left is going to the water pump.

? not that I don't appreciate what pictures can do, but how did bobodean figure out what he needed from a side-by-side shot when he has an up and down?

Glad you got it figured out though!

Best,

It doesn't matter which direction the water flows thru the heater core - they can be connected either way, and it's probably a good idea to swap them every 100Kmi or so to backflush the heater core.
