Hawker Tempest parts

Can anyone help with the ID of the following parts and exactly where you would find them in the cockpit. I’m guessing somewhere under the seat or if not near the fire wall. Has anyone got a general arrangement drawing as to their location/purpose

Many thanks for the help.
Any ideas on these new pieces of ‘plumbing’
The tubes do have plates solder on to them which read
C121 518 33D
C121 518 53D
C121 518 6D

Haven’t as yet found any details on the large tube which looks as though its some form of protective tube or even ducting ???

This is the Upper and Lower Seven-way Hydraulic Pressure and Relief Manifolds Assembly.
The manifolds are mounted, facing inboard, to Port frame tube A101358: (Tube 40, J-N) by means of saddle brackets bolted into the manifold body castings.
The assembly is common to both Typhoon and Tempest.
This is ours in-situ…
