Mainifold Drain Bracket Location

Does anyone have a pic of the mainifold drain bracket location on a 63 BJ7? I believe the 2 are bolted to the oil pan one on each end. When I looked under the car it looks like the oil pan has a lip on it so the bracket doesn't sit flat. Also does anyone know if a 63 BJ7 has overflow drains on the carbs and if so where are they routed?
 
Steve,

Thanks a bunch that was what I was looking for! Any ideas on how the overflows from the carbs are run? I started this project 18 yrs ago and I wasn't smart enough to take pics before taking everything apart.
 
With the # 60 washers in place the bracket should clear the lip on the pan.

No if you notice there are 25 identical item #60 washers used simply to secure the sump none are unique. The little brackets are slightly offset to clear the sump lip. If you have an old Lucas relay the bracket on the back can be used to make two of the drain brackets--Fwiw--Keoke
