With a standard Lotus chassis it runs underneath the backbone. You will find tabs or clips spot welded to the underside of the backbone intended to capture the brake line. From the engine bay the line passes through one of the lower holes in the front bulkhead of the back bone section. At the rear the line turns up and passes through a hole near the differential.
