KAD32 boost gauge

I have a Volvo KAD32 and need to add a boost gauge. I have looked at all the diagrams and cannot see any port for the hose. The Volvo manual takes about a boost gauge, but I cannot see a position for it. Does anyone have any ideas?

It looks like they might be a tapping on top of the intercooler. Failing that drilling and tapping the connecting pipe and putting a fiiting in would do the same job.

Thanks

I have taken out one of the large plugs in the inlet manifold and drilled it.
