1949 F1 Parking Brake Route

While trying to help another builder understand what they are looking at looking for I noticed that I needed to work on my parking brake (OEM hand brake) and it looks like I missing some kind of brace, pully, or pivot point. can someone post pics of the way the front cable leaves the cab and where it goes down the frame, then what it goes thru before it goes to the triangle pivot for the separate brake cable connect to? Help.... Pics are great!

Anyone know the part number for the bracket near the trans? Anyone have a spare they can part with? Where did you all get the new boots for the cables?
