Default 1961-1964 AFB fuel line

Could someone post a picture of the fuel line from pump to carb for a 1961-1964 full size car with an AFB and no AC. I only need the section of fuel line that is under the air cleaner. I can't use the bottom section so I am going to bend my own rather than pay $23 plus shipping and then cut the bottom off. I need to clear the air cleaner though. Thanks.

In 1964 it was a solid line of 3/8" aluminum from the carb to the fuel pump.

I don't care what the fuel pump end looks like only the end of the fuel line where it goes under the air cleaner. I want it to clear the air cleaner when I bend up a fuel line.

This is on my 63 Bonneville wagon, I can't take credit or blame, this is how it was when I got it. there is a dimple on the underside of the air cleaner for line clearance.

I hope this helps!

Goatracer google "1961 Pontiac four barrel engine", "1962 Pontiac four barrel engine" etc. and look at the pictures. I just did and what you want to see are on the internet. The line turns forward immediately after exiting the carburetor and angles down and runs along the inside the edge of the valve cover and then bends down at the front edge of the block where the fuel filter is located above the fuel pump. The pictures I refer to are with the big factory air cleaner in place. I would have saved and posted two or three of the pictures I saw but for some reason they came up blurry on my screen.

James Q what you are showing is not factory.
