Mystery Clip

Tidying up new front brake line connections today and was having a hard time clipping in the flex hose to the backing plate jump tubes. Reviewed my removal pics and can't figure out what the clips that were def there previous were doing. It doesn't look like they were holding anything as they were on the outside of the bracket. I believe I should have Square clips just like in the flex hose mount on the firewall. Anyone want to verify? Photo of previous set-up before tear down included. Check the bracket to see the clip.....
