Scroll down in here there's a diagram http://www.pngclub.com/forum/showthread.php?86668-*HOW-TO*-Fit-a-2.0-8v-16v-into-a-Nova
Bottom of header tank to one of the out lets on the black plastic bar on the rear of the head/block.
Top header, to top of rad small pipe and the T piece is for the small water pipes that's under the inlet on the alt side. Will be a black cast rubber pipe (it warms the tb and inlet)
Side of the head (under dizzy) ? That goes to the heater matrix.

No! No water pipes go to the rocker cover!
It goes to the inlet manifold, there is a 2way bolted in union under the throttle body.

Both on the rocker cover are oil breathers, as they are on all Vauxhalls.
