Default Boost Gauge Fitting V2 STi

Evening chaps, so my boost gauge arrived today and I've looked about on the net but can't find a guide for my particular engine. As mine looks different to the guides on this forum I've got a couple of pictures below.

So I've got these three outlets, I'm guessing due to bore size the vacuum line I put the T-piece into has got to be either the white or red? Any guidance will be much appreciated, don't want to cut the wrong one!

Have you examined the intake manifold to see if there is an unused spigot with a rubber cover? There was on mine.

There's nothing covered with a rubber nipple. At least not in view, I assume it wouldn't be on the side or somewhere out of reach? In view those are the only lines that I consider could be tapped into.

Couldn't see anything obvious really.

Thanks, have to get a different t-piece tomorrow though as the one supplied with the gauge is 4mm and the inner bore of the stock hose seems to be 2.5mm

Don't suppose anyone knows where that hose leads? I've tracked to something which I have no clue the identity of, just to the left of the air box...
