Anyone have a diagram of the vacuum hose routing for '56 Cadillac? I recently put the engine back in the car and when I hooked up the vacuum lines (which I thought was correct) my wipers operated but wouldn't turn off. For the time being I disconnected the wiper motor lines and plugged them. After driving the car a few times since I notice there's some oil in the vacuum lines coming from the manifold and/or the line coming from the back of the motor.

FYI - The motor was not apart. It was taken out so I could do gasket changes, degrease, and fresh paint.

Before the motor was out the wipers worked fine and there was never oil in any vacuum hoses.

The shop manual does not show a complete diagram of the vacuum hose routing so it would be nice to see how they actually go.

I believe it was discussed here many times. Maybe with a research you will find it.In fact, it's pretty simple. Just read what is stamped on the winshield washer cover.
If you still don't find it, I may do a diagram...
