So in this pic , the top break line that goes to the rear of the master cylinder for the front brakes , correct or no

So after looking at diagrams for the master cell or to the proportioning valve. It looks like the rear master cylinder port , which is the front brakes go to the top of the proportioning valve , is that correct

Sry disc front drum rear factory 340 car

Thanks everyone

I didn't mean to come off. Anyway, I do appreciate all the help. I apologize
