Default under hood and heater hoses

I'm fairly new to the chevy world (came from honda world). i'm currently rebuilding my 79 camaro, trying to piece together everything under the hood. i currently am trying to figure out the whole heater hose situation. i'm trying to figure out where the heater hoses route out to. i know obviously from the heater core, but where do they route to from there.

wondering if anyone out there in camaro land can help by directing me where the hoses route to, preferably with pictures of where they route to and general under hood pictures. i'm just trying to get all the odds and ends ironed out before i start her up.

and for those of you wondering, 79 camaro, bored .60 over, hypereutectic pistons, 202/1600 76cc heads, cammed, and rebuilt turbo 350 stage 2 hooked up to a ten bolt rear.

thank you

Hoses are two sizes: 5/8 & 3/4 inch
5/8 inch is supply for core and gets connected to 5/8 inch nipple on intake crossover next to thermostat.
3/4 inch is core outlet and gets connected to nipple on water pump above lower radiator hose.
Welcome to the Club and good luck.

Thank you very much. i found the fittings for where they route to, tomorrows agenda is buttoning up under the hood and letting the cam break in w/ proper heating and cooling.
