1957 Brake line routing

Hello All,
Working on the new brake lines this week. Picked up the set of 4 through hills TBird who sources them from Classic Tubes. The two on the differential were a no brainer but the two that bring the rear brake line along the frame to the front brake line block are a head scratcher. Looked through my old documentation photos and do not get a clear view of the setup here at the steering unit back to the master cylinder. Anyone have some illustrations/insight on what this looks like here near the steering box?

I volunteer at the Restoration/Preservation facility of the Crawford Auto Museum. We restored a 1955 Thunderbird at the facility. Here are some pictures of the frame that might help you.

Thanks for the illustrations Doug but there are a number of differences in the routings for the '57. That looks like a great project!
