Default fuel tank vent routing

92 XJS convertable. Does anyone know the routing for the plastic fuel tank vent in the trunk (boot)? When I removed the tank, I forgot which side and where it was routed to. I thought it went rearward to the tail lamp area.

Picture is upside down. but the plastic vent line is the one with the arrow. It is now just running down the right side of the trunk. I don't know which side it should go or where it should connect.
Anyone have diagrams?

An easy trick for working on fuel tanks and determining which line does what is to blow into the fittings. Vent fitting will allow air straight in and fuel return will bubble if there is any significant amount of fuel in the tank. The pressure line is obvious as it's the one that has fuel pressurised in it and is usually the largest.
