Just some more slow progress. Original plan was to run the braided line the full distance, but then I started reading about vapor smell from the lines and decided to put a hard line in. Just mocking up here, but satisfied with the header clearance and the overall fit. Simply bought a 58" inch piece of 3/8" tubing. Virtually a straight run down the frame.
