They are for the oil recirculation system that get rid of excessive oil in the intake manifold.

Okay. The lines stay on the same side of the mtr. The two nipples underneath the bottom carb go to the top cyl side covers. The lines from under the carb on the top cyl's go to the bottom cyl side covers. Very simple recuirt system. And yes they should have a small amount fuel in them when idling. This re-burns the excess fuel that gathers in the intake manifold when idling. Hope this helps.
