47 loom layout

I'm wondering if anyone has a more or less original 47 senior that might still have the wiring loom in the engine compartment as the factory laid it out.

Looking thru several photos, the looms have been repaired so question I have is if the looms were unclamped when repaired and left that way or did Packard just leave everything going to the sides unclamped to angle off in their respective directions unsupported and able to vibrate. I would have thought they would have neatly laid the sections out and tucked things in toward the firewall with maybe a clamp or two in spots to the sides but even in the photos that might still be untouched it is unclear. Only consistent clamp is in the part that goes straight down.

I'm putting my new loom in and would like to attempt what Packard did with clamps in appropriate spots if they were used.
