Default Engine Help Needed.. vaccum hook up?

I have bought a 87 Hurricane 1000. I pulled the carb to clean then, but for some reason there is no vaccum line hooked up to my carbs. So I looked to see where on the engine it would hook into and I cant find where it would hook up. please help thanks.

I can't cross my heart, etc. , there's just not a need on that bike for any lines.
The petcock is a manual, so it doesn't need one to activate fuel flow.

Hopefully, one of the others has a more informed opinion.

87and 88 are pretty much the same. I have an 88. They do run a fuel pump but will run without it. Mine is disconnected but with the filter still in place. The pump is self regulating for pressure but is triggered by a relay that is triggered by the ignition box. The pump won't run unless the engine is running. You can test the pump by jumping the relay wires after pulling the connector.
