Brake Line Routing

I have a A-H 100 (late BN-1) and am in the process of bending new brake lines, as someone in the past did a 'quick & dirty' job of running the long main line to the rear under the frame rail, I have no correct pattern for the new line. As ends are already flared & length is allegedly correct, this has to be right. Anybody have a pic or know where I can find one where the line comes thru/over the frame @ rear to the flex connection on the RH side?
 
Hi,whitworth - hang in there, someone will be along that has an answer for you. Everybody's out driving!
 
Whitworth,

I have some pics that might help and glad to send them to you via PM if you like.... If these are still in need?

One additional thought I had was to use a heavy cooper wire to mock up the bends. Unbending the tube is a pain and never really comes out well. I had the old ones to go by but if you don't getting some heavy cooper wire that will hold its shape from a Home Depot or other store might be a good idea.

Always easy to bend off a template....
