Default 69 L36 fuel lines

Just acquired a 69 L36 monza red over red / white top 4 spd and am squaring away some minor issues one being the correct routing of the vapor return line specifically from the filter to the line on the frame. I need to adjust mine since it is really close to the head and touches the heater hose and may touch the A frame if I try to reposition it. A picture of one would be greatly appreciated before I start redoing something that may or may not require redoing. Thanks in advance.

I took these at a car shoe of an NCRS nearly perfect car or so says the owner. Bought at Mecum...yada yada yada. Anyway these are all the pics I have, hopefully you can see the fuel line vapor return. I just happened to take them because I was originally told the big block cars didnt have fuel return lines......guess we can scratch that off the identifying traits list

Thanks RR! Pictures have helped as I see that line runs just over the fuel pump and not near the other components that were causing me concern. Thanks again and as usual it’s so helpful having forum members helping others out.

L36 doesn't use the steel clamp with the upside down P marking.
