As I get this car back together, my attention turns to the OEM fuel vapor canister and plumbing. A previous owner had taken the front bumper, header panel, and trim off the front end at some point in time. They left the charcoal fuel vapor canister intact and laying in the front drivers side corner of the engine compartment, and left all 3 lines that go to the top of the canister undisturbed and connected, but the metal bracket that mounts the can to the radiator support and the can's bottom "lid" with hose was in the trunk.

I figured out the mounting of the metal bracket, but the "lid" or cover that goes on the bottom of the can has a hose on it with a metal attaching bracket on the end of it. Where does that bracket/hose end bolt up? I've been searching online for images and schematics, and I also searched the Gallery here (someone has a great set of photoes of a 73 Chevelle survivor engine bay which I've been using to figure out other things) but couldn't find a photo to clue me in on where this goes.

Anybody have a photo of where this hose end is supposed to go? Thanks.

On my 73 monte one hangs down and bolted to the frame. Might be it.

Yes, I recall it bolting to the frame. Extend the hose near the frame and look for a hole.
