THREE, is correct. You're right. The glass, plus the pipe off to its left will all fill up, before any liquid gets high enough in 1 to flow towards 4.
Noooo, 3 can't fill because it will leak before it is full. Surely!
Leak where ? Both pipes are closed
Too quick for my edit!
This is a dickish puzzle - the blocked pipes turn it from being a proper physics question into a ner-ner-ner-ner-ner trick. I'm out.
3 can’t fill can it until 6 is full. No longer think it is 3, 6 for me
The pipe from 3 to 6 is blocked. Ner-ner-ner-ner-ner.*
