Mine exit near the gear fittings. Originally the connections were up inside the skin. That was a pain for float changes. Bulkhead fitting through the sheet metal make removal and reinstallation of the brake lines much easier.

Because the SS braided lines were free(off a Navaho) I ran one line from the master to the bulkhead Elbow that I installed that exits at the top of the channel brace of the gear. also easy to R and R. It's tight with the gear hardware but I don't see a problem. They were installed after I covered the airplane. I picture would help. Get one at lunch.
Reason for asking is i am making some more changes to cargo pod design and this was one area i hoped to improve on but realize there are a bunch of cubs that have lines that dump straight down threw this area and would make it a bit difficult to fit a pod correctly, but feel the change would help streamline the pod.
