New carburetor install help.

I took the old carburetor off of my 78 Ford f100 custom 4.9 and ordered a new one. The new one I have is an nd1460 and I can't find where the vacuum hose goes into the carburetor. It doesn't have the connection at the same spot the other one did. Everything else looks pretty much the same except for the ultra flow fuel filter. That doesn't screw back in either. The numbers on the old one were 2346. Can anyone take a picture of theirs and let me know where the hoses go?

You payed for the right carb so they should give you the right carb. It's not your problem to cobble their mess together. Take it back, if they can't produce the right one get your money back.
