Oil routing: how are these suppose to be connected?

Sadly I don't know what year 12A it is. The 2nd picture is of a tube protruding from the oil pan. I'll take a better picture.

Shots of both the 84 and 79 12A would be a big help djmtsu. Thanks.
A picture's worth a thousand words as they say.

The one on the iron is not coolant related.

I just pluged mine (on the iron) and ran the filler neck nipple to the intake.

Good to know

Much appreciated.

Here's what the 2nd picture was of.

Is this an oil temperature port or ??

That wire is what he's talking about here.

Find a white connector in the engine bay near that area, its a 2 pin connector. (note, I know this is on FC's, not sure if it is the same connector on FB's)
Repair the wire, hook to said connector. When low on oil an annoying buzzer should go off.

Man, I'm a dunce. I wasn't paying attention. Thanks guys.

Oh, I forgot to mention an important thing (yet more proof of numbskulledness): this 12A is in an 85 Corolla.

I wanted to make sure I had all the essential connections made and the non-essentials pointed out.

Anyone know off hand the thread size of the oil temp sensor? I know I can pull the sensor and check for myself but if anyone would be so kind I'd be obliged. I can go ahead and order the appropriate aftermarket oil temp gauge and if necessary the correct adapter.
