Default Help with 78-84 5000 radiator plumbing

Hi guys, I was hoping someone could help me identify all the ports on what I believe is an early Audi 5000 radiator. I'm installing one in my 1988 Merkur XR4Ti and I'm pretty sure I understand everything except that port on the left hand side of this photo:


My radiator:

The right hand side, from the top is a burp line, In, Out, and a drain port I'm assuming? I've looked everywhere(short of buying a manual) and searched these forums and haven't been able to find anything. Thanks in advance!

-Chris

In the meantime...I'll browse the classifieds and look for a mint 5spd Audi 200 Turbo Quatto Avant for sale in New England

The port on the left side connects to the bottom of the overflow tank so technically it would be the fill.
