Do puppets only stockpile 1000 units of whatever resources and transfer the rest to you? I am thinking about creating Ceylon, Guyanna, and the Ukraine as resource puppets as Germany to feed the war machine.

Yes, they do.
Caveats:
Caveats:
- Not supplies, money, manpower, atomic bombs.
- Does not work if the puppet is landlocked and cannot trace a land connection to your capital.

How about supplies? They would be exluded aswell, would they not?
Resource convoys can subtitute for a land connection.
True. Added.
True. Sadly they are slightly bugged. Clarified.
Can the direct land line be traced through other puppets? For example as Germany I have created Azerbajan, Persia and India (including Ceylon) as puppet. Most for oil and Indian manpower/rares?
Depends. The first ought to try and send resources to you via direct land route (because it has no sea access and a land route to your capital exists), through any allies (including other puppets) or neutrals inbetween, but all with sea access will send by sea instead.
If you were ENG or JAP, you could not receive resources from puppet Azerbaidzhan at all.

You could give Azerbaijan provinces in old Persia so it has a port.

"You" in the sense of Zsar1 (i.e. changing ownership of some vanilla game's provinces) or in an impersonal sense (i.e. give Azerbaijan some provinces during a game after one liberates it)?
Because, if #1, that would be ahistorical and as such I would be against it.
As the "agree" on my post comes from Zsar, I think it was clear. Besides, is there anything historical in discussing Japan with oil puppet in the Caucasus?
Well, one thing is what the player does within the game (as they correctly say, as soon as the player click on "unpause" the realism/history goes through the window); another thing is changing from the get-go a historical setup like giving de jure a country some provinces it never claimed, nor had anything to do with in real life.
Besides, I'm probably not intelligent enough but I still didn't understand which one was the correct answer to my question above.

I did not suggest that any developer should make changes to the game. In playing, there is option I discussed to avoid some land-locked puppets done only to get around AoD's particular handling of how resources from puppet can flow... or will not flow.
