I have a 1930's oil pressure gauge kit with a copper tube and the instructions show the copper line routed exactly like Tom's picture in post #7. The gauge mounts below the dash panel using the two bottom dash panel screws. Your instructions are for using the PLASTIC line supplied with your gauge. You would NOT want to run a plastic tube under the exhaust pipe thus it shows the line going around the front of the block and then back to the firewall.
