Prior to inserting the oil lines in the duct, Malcolm likes to lay in some old nylaflow tubing. This will be used to pull antenna cables and engine controls through the duct later.
Then the oil lines (and nylaflo) and inserted into the pilot side duct. As they emerge from at the nose, they are bent up to the connectors at the oil cooler. Then the tubing is cut and flared and connected to the oil cooler.
Next, a bracket is placed on the firewall and those ends and flared and connected to a pair of bulkhead adapters.
