Question f100 cooling system layout

I realize I should have known better than to take all the hoses off the cooling system and the heater core without at least marking them to tell me where things went.

Having not done so, I'd like to make sure I did things right. So:

1. Where does the heater core hoses attach to?
2. Where does the bypass hose attach to?

Had to take everything off to replace heads on my 302. The truck is a 1978 F100 pickup. If anyone can tell me where the varous hoses in the heating/cooling system go, I would very much appreciate it.
Even better would be if someone can email me a diagram or a picture of a properly done cooling/heating system. Haynes manual is no help.

Thanks.

I have 3 pictures taken from a 73 F100 that has a 302. How do I post them here or how do I get them to you?

Grizzley,

These are all of my 1973 302 which I just rebuilt. Can you see these pictures? If so, are they of any help?

I can see the pictures clearly. Thanks for your help. The pictures answered a bunch of questions. Looks like we might have put the heater hoses backwards(right hose going to where the left should and vice versa) so is not a big deal.
