Default Requesting help on how lines fit

Coming back to the experts again..

Reassembling the 80 and following the assembly manual whenever possible but the 2 issues below are either not in the manual or just show an unhelpful picture.

1. Transmission cooling lines - got a new set but on the housing, there is a top and bottom connection. Dont want to assume the top goes to the top of radiator and bottom to bottom. Also...they just dont seem to sit inside the compartment neatly. Any pictures or suggestions?

2. AC lines - AC didnt work when I got it and I will eventually have it fixed but for now will just mount everything. The aluminum line on the passenger side that goes forward - how does it get mounted? CAM doesn't even have the AC in there (that I can find).

As always, I greatly appreciate any help from the forum!
