original heater hose routing picture request - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I'm getting ready to put them on and was wondering how they lay in the engine bay. I think the one that goes to the radiator has a clip on the inner fender. I'm wondering the one that goes to the block also goes through the clip holder as well.
Anyone have a good picture or diagram?

Thanks Jim! It appears to have a clip for the hoses that's not used on the inner fenders with the I6 and the manual transmission setup.
The clip is mounted to the inner fender on the Auto trans isn't it?
Can someone confirm this?

s/t, I looked at some old pics of my I-6 set-up and you are correct. There is a heater hose clamp/clip that clips around both heater hoses, but it is not fastened to the inner fender. It looks to be in about the same location as the one in the diagram that Jim posted.
