If you have the correct (OE style) tubes, they will only go on one way since the inlet threads on the proportioning valve are different sizes. The front chamber of the M/C goes to the forward most port (the one on the right top in your photo) and the rear chamber of M/C goes to the rear port. Also, the 1/4" tube goes to the rear and the 3/16" tube goes to the front.

That looks the same as my 75 in which case the bottom one goes to front right (passenger wheel), top front goes to drivers wheel, middle top to front chamber on master cylinder and rear top to rear chamber on master cylinder. Happy New Year.
