Default Missing a vaccum line? L32 Guys?

So all the L32 guys here, if that many at all, do you have these 2 sensors with vacuum lines running to them?

I have located one line that goes to one of the sensors (listed in imagery). The other sensor has a nipple fitting for a vacuum line, but no vacuum fitting/line present in the area. What goes to this, or is it left exposed to engine air? Trying to make this as easy as possible for you guys to help me by having good photos and marked the photos in photoshop.

History of area: When installing headers I broke off a L fitting adapter, found this part @ oreilys and replaced the fitting, but noticed in area there is a missing line
