Default vacuum source for 76

Can someone help with the correct location for the vacuum source for the headlight and wiper vacuum system on my 76? Presently, the source is thru the firewall into the interior but I don't think this is correct. I have the troubleshooting guide but it's a little vague as to the routing of the vacuum lines before the filter, which is missing.
Thanks

The vacuum source would be the vacuum tree on the back of the manifold. There are vacuum lines that go into the cabin to meet the switches but it's just a big looping system.
