Ranchero - Fordomatic tranny coolant line shape and routing

I need to bend the coolant lines to complete the installation of an original Fordomatic in my '57 Ranchero.  Need guidance, picture or template to at least get close to factory original. I do have a very original '59 retractable with an FE and Cruiso I can use for guidance.  Any better ideas than just following the '59 routing?  Anything notable about factory '57 routing?  Thanks

Can't help with this.  Just a thought though, given the 57 - 59 underpinnings are identical using the 59 routing would get you really close or maybe exact for the 57?

You can buy these lines pre-bent from several vendors.
