The black pipe at the base is a vacuum pipe think its for a dizzy vacuum

oops, my dizzy one is the smaller brownish one at the left and goes from dizzy to manifold on far side

i've got my flow/return pipework on ok, fuel in, brather from manifold to brake servo

the silver bit on manifold i'm thinking is another tap for a water supply to something else ???

black one might be for an additional breather pipe ?

Black bit looks like crank case breather connection to me.

silver one on manifold looks like water cooling to me

The breather on your rocker covers go to the black one. The silver one should be for the water temp sender, but it looks like it's been converted to a water outlet pipe
