Where do cables go through rear bulkhead

Does anyone know where the Accelerator cable and speedometer cables pass through the rear bulkhead on the RF40.

In general terms it is obviously at the rear of the gear change tunnel. Both cables run from the front of the car down the gear change tunnel. It is where they go after they pass through the rear bulkhead I am not sure of.

More precisely it looks like the accelerator cable passes inside the rear drag link mounts on the chassis and inward into the engine bay, then up over the front of the engine.

Similarly it looks like the speedometer cable follows the gear change shaft to the right hand side of the gearbox then over the top of the gearbox to the speedo drive on the left. This path would mean it passes to the outside of the rear draglink mounts (and outboard of the accelerator cable).

Before I drill any holes in the rear bulkhead I would like to confirm my theories.

Regards

John
