Think i may have connected the pipes round the wrong way on my brake servo (BJ7), should the pipe from the master cylinder go in the first hole nearest the black piston housing and the pipe out to the brakes go in the far hole facing out towards the side of the car ? (had it round the other way initially)

From the master cylinder into the 3 way union mounted on the inner wheel arch (next to blower motor), then out of union and into the hole "nearest the black piston housing". The 3rd leg in the union is for the brake light pressure switch.
Then out of the servo hole farthest from the housing end and into the 4 way union mounted lower down on a stud welded just above the frame / front cross member. This then feeds the front brakes on the 2nd and 3rd leg and the 4th is the feed to the rear brakes (with 3 way union mounted on rear axle via a flexi pipe).
