I removed top sides of engine to change oil, oil filter, rebuild carb, etc. On the inside of the port-side of engine there are two nipples to which hoses attach. I have one long and one short hose, but can't remember where these two hoses attach to the engine.

I should have taken a pic, but didn't.

Does anyone have a diagram or pic of a 9.9 Honda mid 2000 on the carb side?

I think one of these is my pee tube, but I can't figure out to where it attaches.

Please help!

1st - I meant starboard side.

2nd - Question: - the black hose that is attached to the starboard side of the muffler and then runs up - does that attach to the nipple on the cowling or to the bottom of the carb?

Is that the pee tube?

3rd - I have two yellow/clear hoses: one long, one short. So does the long one go from the cowling nipple to the bottom of the carb and then the short one - does it attach to the nipple on the front/bottom of the air intake and the starboard/front of the engine?

I assume you don't have a shop manual. Not the same, but better than nothing, are the diagrams on the online parts stores, like boats.net. Go there, go to the Honda section, find your year and model, and maybe these hoses will show in one of the the diagrams.

I have an older 8HP Honda, which evidently is somewhat different (my fuel and pee hole hoses or on the port side). However, in general, I think any black (not the clear vinyl) hoses are for the fuel system, that is, from the nipple that is on the inside end of the fuel tank hose fitting to the fuel pump inlet, from the fuel pump outlet to the inline fuel filter to the carburetor inlet. My model has no clear vinyl, I am not sure about the newer ones; Honda may have switched to vinyl for the draining type hoses (or a prev owner may have swapped them). The fitting near the bottom of the carburetor (it should be near the drain screw) has a hose that exits to the bottom of the cover, for drained fuel. Mine has a hose from the side of the block to the exit pee hole at the bottom of the housing. If by "cowling nipple" you mean that it would let any draining fuel (if you open the drain screw) out the bottom of the housing/cowling, then that seems correct.

If you did not remove any fuel system hoses and can run it in a tank or with muffs, leave the suspect pee hole hose off, run it briefly, see where the water exits, and use the appropriate length hose to route that out the bottom exit nipple.
