It's one of the large (3/4 if I remember rightly) vacuum ports just below the carb in either the carb spacer or intake manifold.

One is for the brake booster and the other is for the PCV valve.

Be advised that you may have a vacuum tree comming off the intake at one of these ports.

The large PCV valve port hooks into the one closest to the carb throttle body.

Also be advised that your truck may have a canister purge system. The small port of the PCV valve will hook to that system.
