250 Crusader / Continental cable routings

Does anyone have drawings or photos of the official (factory) routings of control and especially electrical cables for the above machines, please? There must be a 'proper' route but I cannot find any such information.
I am specifically interested for my 1965 Conti GT. I believe the clutch, choke and throttle cables run along the RHS of the top frame tube and the electrical harness along the LHS; that seems to work, at any rate. The HT lead exits the battery compartment at the front, above the top lip of the plastic cover but does the harness as well? Space seems a bit tight. Alternatively, should it exit at the top, through the gap between the roof of the compartment and the rear frame tubes?
All info gratefully received, to avoid my introducing and tight spots, pinching, etc.

Hi, I have never seem any reference to control or electrical cable routing in any manuals of the period. Vince

Thanks, Vince and nor have I, unfortunately. I'm rather hoping someone may unearth an old photo or similar, showing an original layout. I accept it is not likely after this length of time but if I don't ask the question, I shall never know.
Many thanks for responding so promptly, nevertheless.
