OMP oil line routing ?

Despite taking numerous disassembly pics and notes I don't know if 1993-95 OMP oil lines route
under or over the pair of metal lines crossing the top front of engine block ?
I remember how the oil lines routed around pulleys with OMP wiring harness, but not on top.

Does anyone recall ? I searched but couldn't find the info.

Thanks.

You should install the oil injector lines first, then the metal oil tubes, don't torque the banjo bolt past finger tight until you have the turbos on. Page C-80 in the Engine FSM will aid you on your quest to brap brap.

I didn't know if plastic lines so close to the block would be a concern or not.

I'll browse the FSM to see what else I may have overlooked .. :^) thanks.

Engine or chapter C in the FSM should be your guide to assembling the engine and accessories. If you're worried about abrasion to the lines just use silicone tape to wrap the lines where they rub. They can take the heat of being close to the block as long as you never need to move them again.

Very old lines have been known to crack due to heat soak from the engine. Since you're in there, just replace them with wrapped braided stainless and you won't ever worry about them again.
