I've just replied to your comment in my build thread. But I ran them behind the manifold. Heat wrap around the cooler pipes. Through the gearbox mount and wrapped some old coolant hose around the pipes to prevent chafing. Run along the wiring harness and cable tie them to the harness. Over the top of the radiator (I think I also secured them by the battery) and you're there.
Some people put the hoses over the top of the rocker cover. But that looks pony.

It seems easier to route it that way. Might look for some heat sleeving
