Default Mounting Brake Lines on Stock Rear - Question

I've almost got the car swapped back to stock from the 9". How are these brake lines and E-brake lines supposed to be secured on or around the rear? Can I just bend these lines however I want without hurting them? If someone could post pics of their stock setup that would be awesome.

Here is what I got so far.

From drivers side, I can see where the brake line bolts to the rear possibly

the stock lines are terribly ugly...i used some 7/16" cable ties (zip ties) appprox 4 on each side to hold them to the tubes

i recently bought 2 new hardlines from the local parts store and bent my own lines which fit alot nicer for $8

Well I shoved the lines down into the clips on the tubes and tapped them shut with a mallet. Is the brake line splitter supposed to bolt to the housing?

on factory rears, depending on the brake setup, they do.

its not super important, as long as its not rubbing on anything
