Default Fuel pipe clearance

Hi all,
I'm playing about with the routing for my fuel and brake lines at the moment.
I've got a potential issue getting them past the gearstick turret at the end of the gearbox.

My original plan was to run them down the tunnel like this:



However when I dropped the engine in to check for clearance there wasn't any, and the turret was pressed hard up against the lines...
So I'm wondering if I can bend them around it like this:





I think I get about 5mm clearance between the gearbox and the lines if I do this, is that going to be too close for IVA man?
