Default Help needed...

I have just got my bike back from getting a new engine fitted ...
Done 1100 miles over the weekend and decided to have a look over her to check everything today...
To discover some major mistakes ...
The pipes from the water pump and thermostat are all in wrong...
And where one of the pipes are meant to come out of the head is blocked off meaning the coolant isnt going through the engine....

Can anyone tell me the right order for them....

At the minute mine are as followed...

Pipe from bottom of water pump goes to left side on the carbs......
Pipe on top of water pump goes to left side of head....
right side of carbs goes to thermostat
And the right pipe on head is blocked off with a small bit of rubber pipe with a bolt in it....
I know this is not right.....

thanx.........[:@]

Well I seem to have come across the problem....
The bike shop put on the wrong water pump....
There was a outlet less on it and they just blocked where the pipe should have gone into the head...
I hope there is no enternal damage done......

I am contacting them tomorrow.....
They fitted the motor for me as I blew the last one....
I only had them do the work as they collected me and the bike on the road side....
I normaly do all my own work......

They have made some butcher job of the work and dont know if I would have them work on my bike again....
