ABS actuator removal questions

I'm getting ready to by-pass my ABS actuator. For now I'll keep the LSPV (heresy, I realize). I just want to make sure I'm doing this properly. The rear brake line comes off the MC and over to the passenger side wheel well, where it joins at an L junction. According to what I've read, I just remove the fitting from the L junction (where my finger is) and attach a line back to the LSPV. Now the question is, Which of the two fittings on the LSPV is the one coming back from the ABS actuator, the upper or lower fitting? It's very difficult to follow the lines past the fuel tank. Also, once I join the line from the L junction under the wheel well to the LSPV, is there anything else I need to do, or can I just go ahead and bleed the brakes and roll?

On the actuator its self there should be arrows stamped just ahead of where the brake lines connect.

I need to know about the LSPV. Maybe I wasn't clear. The ABS actuator is out of the picture. I know there is a line that goes from the actuator back to the LSPV, but I don't know where it connects to the LSPV (upper or lower connection) because the lines get lost over the fuel tank.

I have a feeling that one of the lines gets capped along with one of the lines under the wheel well, but I'm not sure.

I think I have it. The top connection is from the actuator, and the bottom is to the front brakes. I'm going to try to keep as much of the original hard line as possible.
