Threadjack... when doing a flush/fill on the transmission, can we unhook...

one of these lines, use an air compressor, and blow out the extra old fluid?

I don't think, that the fluid line to the TC is open, the TC holds half of the fluid.

You can figure it out pretty easily

Just start the car (from cold), and feel the lines where they go into the radiator. The one that gets hot first is the feed from the tranny. If you're in a hurry, have someone put the car in gear and hold the brakes, the trans will heat the fluid faster.
