Talking Steering problems HELP!!!

Ok I am not sure how to explain this thoroughly but I will try my best. I am runnin a '77 F250 which I have been told had the "Garrison" type power steering. The only thing is when I bought the truck, the power cylinder ram had been taken off. So I have been driving it with out power steering which isnt bad on the road when its moving but its a pain in the butt in parking lots and such. I want to buy another power cylinder ram for it and I also need the lines that go from the control valve to the cylinder ram. On the control valve there are 4 holes. As I look at it through the fender well, the first 2 "front" holes go directly to the power steering pump. The other 2 behind the "front" holes are just plugged so the holes do not leak. Here's my question....... When I go to put the new cylinder ram and lines on, which one of the plugged holes in the control valve is used to turn left and which one is used to turn right? Remember, this is as I look straight at it on the driver side of the truck. like i said the front 2 have hoses and the back 2 are plugged. Can anyone help me on this? I know I could prob just go through trial and error considering it would only take 2 times to get it right but that would be messy and possibly damage the system. I am looking for some good input here guys. Thanks to anyone that can help.
