Does the MCS have fuel injectors?

Sounds like a dumb question, but I was trying to figure this out. I saw on the throttle body how-to that there is a fuel line attached to the throttle body. Does the MCS engine use TBI, or are there individual injectors for each cylinder?

That how-to is wrong. There is no fuel that goes into the throttle body. There are individual fuel injectors in each intake runner.

i believe the "fuel line" is the gas tank vent.
