Rian, you can bend the brake lines yourself. With what you and Martin do there it shouldn't be any issue if either of you have the flaring and bending tool. Only thing I can't see in your picture is the distribution block off the master (on disk brakes they call it the proportioning valve). I've never run a drum brake vehicle with a dual master cylinder that didn't have one. I imagine you can, but supposedly it allows both brakes to work right if one cylinder is low in the master. Maybe the picture will make more sense.
