Super M Loader Plumbing

Hello all.

Well, the next couple days I am going to work on transferring the loader and a few other items from my M to my Super M. I was curious how the plumbing coming from the reservoir should be done. There are two fittings on the left (clutch) side of the valve body/reservoir. The lower one is currently plumbed with a line to the rear, and the upper one has a T that is capped on both ends. Is this reservoir/valve body similar to the belly pump on my M, in that one output is a delayed-action for rear cultivator lift? Would I simply install both lines for the left and right cylinders to each side of the "T" of the upper port? OR, can I use the lower port for one side, and the upper port for another? I am currently at work so cannot take photos of the Super M but can add them later. The loader I am installing is a Farmhand Standard loader (Picture of the current setup on my M). One-way cylinders, gravity down, trip bucket.

I also have the large capacity hyd. fluid tank that goes with the loader. On my M I have that plumbed directly to the oil fill on the belly pump. I assume I can plumb it the same into the oil fill on the Super M? the cylinders need the extra fluid tank to utilize full lifting height.

Any help is greatly appreciated. I plan to tackle this project on Thursday/Friday. I have a few other things to transfer over but they are not nearly as involved (wheel weights, etc.).

Right side and top left side can be used together for loader or any one of the three single openings with a tee to loader cylinders. Anything connected to rear will need line unhooked with quick disconnect or other means when using loader. Fill opening will work, if a tank vent was added to tractor other than fill opening it would need plugged.
 
Ok, so here are some photos of what I've got. I am assuming the bottom port, because it has a left and right side, can be directed to each right and left cylinder, providing equal pressure to both sides. The upper port currently has a capped off "T" fitting which I would prefer to leave alone. Am I on the right track, here? Left side of bottom port to left loader cylinder, right side of bottom port to right loader cylinder?

Also, the fill opening has the standard vented cap so I assume there is no other tank vent that was added.

When tractor was new the left side where the tee is had a short hose to a tee with pipe bolted to rear of fuel tank support with a outlet on both sides of the tractor for front cultivators or loader hookup. Other two ports on rear across from each other would be joined far as I know but easier to use a tee than get to plug toward center. Will post a picture of original plumbing after bit.
 
Hose 31 went from top opening near clutch pedal to tee and pipe assembly 32 that had openings on left and right. Right plug at back of unit was not normally used with that unit. Bottom opening near clutch pedal was used for rear cultivators or whatever. Hope this clears things up. My first answer was confusing.
