I just want to know what vacuum line was the wastegate orginally connected to. Right now it is connected to my boost controller, and I want to take out the boost controller, but i forgot where the vacumm line from the wastegate originally goes. Does this make sense?

From wastegate, it Tees out to the intake manifold and the stock bypass valve

if i took off the stock bypass valve and bought a HKS BOV would it be teed off to that?

Just connect it to a good vacuum source....Tee off the BOV line if you would like.
Not the best way..but it would work.
a direct line to the Charge pipe or Mani is the best source..

The pipe coming out of the Compressor Housing(the turbo outlet pipe)

You aren't planning on swapping out the BPV for a BOV are you?

Ok. For a minute I thought you were just going to try swapping them.

So just to clarify, I could just run a hose from my wastegate to the turbo outlet?
