The first one goes on the left hand hole on the plastic pipe mate heres a pic of mine if that helps

Got a better pic of the second pipe mate? Its either the inlet or outlet pipe for the throttle body but I can't tell from the pic Where does the other pipe on the throttle body lead to?

No worries mate The second pipe will go to one of two places depending on which pipe it is.
Its either this pipe here which I've tried to mark it in red as its not very clear but it connects to a T piece joint on the pipe that comes off the lower inlet.

If its not that one it then its connects to the left hand side port of the expansion tank mate.
Basically it allows coolant to flow in and out of the throttle body, then back into the main system
