Hi

No luck with the photo, just to crowded in there to get a photo you'd recognise or even show the way the pipes end up going.

But this is how my lines go and these are as shown in the parts book. Looking at the five-way union that the brake switch is also attached to from the engine bay in a clockwise direction:
Top union comes from the brake servo
right hand supplies the rear brakes
bottom supplies the NSF (Near Side Front)
left hand supplies OSF (Off-Side Front)

Hope this is of help to you
