metal brake line length

Hello, I have acquired a 1955 MD pile of parts and I need some info. What is the length of the metal brake line from the master cylinder to the junction block on the axle housing? Also, the line to the flex hose on the left front from the same junction block, how long is it? The diagram in ORD 9 does not give the measurements that I can see. Any help or advice appreciated. Thanks, Robert

For the benefit of all here I'll post Joel Gopan's reply to Robert on the G503 site:

801393 Junction Block to left flex line = 6-1/2"

I have these NOS but are out in the barn (bought them from Jeep 40 years ago when I was restoring and building NOS M-38A1 Jeeps), to be on the safe side use the above for developed length after double flaring.
