For the plastic sheath they run in, search "PVC 105" from "SPC Technology" or "Alpha" on ebay. You need larger (~1/2"D), but that will get you in the neighborhood. I use it on when rewiring my 60's cars, or you could use "split loom", but I think it is ugly and hard to keep clean.

Think you're confusing the factory newer pencil setup with a conversion from loop GPs. There's 3 or 4 equal length "jumper" wires required, if the stock one to the fuse block is still ok.
Unfortunately I can't help OP as the setup I had on my car I transferred to another (never took pics of course), which recently led to a problem getting the engine usable again, I actually ended up using the remains of a 1984 factory GP wiring harness on my 1980 engine that originally had loop GPs...
