72 Chevy Fuel Lines

I need some help running new fuel lines on a 72 Chevy short bed w/ ECC 350 Auto. Long story but the readers digest version is that I paid a lot of money to a guy to do some body/paint work on my son's truck. (If your in N. AL I'll be glad to tell you who NOT to use). He promised to have it finished and put back together for my son's college graduation (2 years ago!). I finally had to sue to get it back. Anyway, original fuel lines were bad. I bought new and he said he would put them on. Trouble is, he ripped out the old, I don't have a clue what he did with the clips (I've since bought new clips) and he just put the other lines along the frame without really attaching them to anything. The rubber connecting hoses are really what was holding everything together. He bent the heck out of the 1/4" return line where it comes through the floorboard of the cab. This guy was a real piece of work.
What I need is someone with a similar setup that has the 3/8" fuel feed line, the 1/4" return line and the 5/16" vent line in tact, and in the proper place that would be willing to take some pictures of the lines and how they are run along the frame and how they are attached to the frame. I have the assembly manual but I can't find anything specific on the lines and the service manual doesn't exactly match up either. Diagrams are too small and unclear.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!
