Here's the whole fuel/vacuum pump system right after I bent a new one. All the bends and angles are as OEM except after the thermostat housing bends toward the carbs. All the line clips are OEM except for the one at the front of the thermostat housing, which I got from restoration Specialties, I think it's a GM clip.

I cleaned & plated the original clips & clamps except for the thermostat clamp which was a single. I wanted a double there & found one at Restoration Specialties, my list says part #960020. They also had a variety of other clamps too.
 
The canvas chafe guard is their (asphalt coated?) cloth wiring loom, Willys used this for brake line clamps elsewhere on the car.

I liked working with the easy to bend & corrosion proof cupro-nickel, or cunifer for the brake lines and called Brakequip tech support to see if it was rated/approved for engine vibration and it is, so I went with that for the engine too. Not OEM but it was nice to work with.
