Check the fsm? If you post up a pic of the ones you are having issues with, maybe I can help you.

Front is feed and rear is return, iirc...turbo line is back of the block into a tee near the rear coolant fitting. Line at the firewall top is feed, bottom is return, return goes into the same line with the turbo coolant line.
The pain in the arse coolant heat sink looks like an octopus, it's attached to middle area.
