Need help hooking up oil gauge lines

I have almost got everything back together on my Bugeye. I have to admit I would have given up long ago had it not been for so many of you helping me on the forum. My last task is installing the oil lines. I think the silver line attaches to the oil gauge, the copper line attaches to the engine, and the rubber line and clamps connect the two, correct? I also need to know where does the oil line come through the firewall, and how does it travel throught the engine bay. Any help is greatly appreciated. I have included three pics: one of the firewall, one of the lines, and one of where it attaches to the engine. Any help is greatly appreciated.

And here is a pic of the lines. Many of my lines are bent - are these shaped correctly?

And finally, I think this is where the copper line attaches to the engine, correct?

Thanks, Ray. Can anyone tell me where the silver line comes through the firewall and how it travels through the engine bay?
