Default vacuum hose help

Trying to finish up a '79 W72 rebuild and need help with loose vacuum hoses. How were they bundled together from the factory? Electrical tape makes a sticky mess and wire ties were not around, so whats left?

Only ones that were bundled were to the blue valve.
Ladder zip ties were used in a few places like on AC and harness
Get the color striped vac lines from Ames too.

I sampled a few striped vacuum lines from different sellers, likely same brand. It all just rubbed off.

I’ve had the Ames lines on my car for a few years. Inline tube stuff is garbage.
