Default Brake line pic request

I am finally getting around to putting the brake and fuel lines back on my 78. Unfortunately, it has been a little too long since I pulled them off and I am having some difficulty routing them in. In particular, the crossover line for the front passenger side. The new ones came bent out of shape a bit and I cant seem to figure out where it is supposed to run through where the a-arms mount. Can someone get me a good picture of where this line goes through? Or point me to a GOOD diagram? Thanks

Do you have the assembly manual? There is a good sketch on the routing of this line. I can post it if you don't have it.

This taken during a fuel pump extraction but it might help.
