Where do the oil hoses go?

The hose from the oil tank go to the pump, and the Littlefield hose leaving the pump for to the top left fitting on the carburetor, kickstarter side, airbox side right? The next little portal on the carburetor a little bit to the right and a little bit lower just a drain all it needs is a little hose right?
My main concern is the portal right underneath the air intake on the engine case is that for oil or is that just a vent?
What about that big nipple that's underneath the air intake on the engine case is that for oil or is that an air vent?
The hose that fits on the nipple under the air intake is the gearbox breather, it runs up under the hood ending up under the headlight.
When you get the pipes sorted out you will need to prime the pump and bleed the air from the oil lines.
You can download a manual and get instructions on how to do that here....

And what about this little nipple is that just a draining hose also?

The crankshaft bearings are lubricated by oil that isdrawn into the inlet with the fuel charge.
It finds its way through passageways into the bearings.
Other internal moving parts are lubricated with the oil that the evaporated fuel and oil mix leaves behind in the crankcase.

The hoses either side are vents.
The one that comes out of the bottom of the float bowl is an overflow/drain.
