Moody 56 running backstay query.

I am looking at a Moody 56 which was derigged by persons unknown and trying to figure out the running backstay arrangement. I guess the running backstay tails are led to the sets of turning blocks and rope clutch located outside the cockpit coaming under the sheet winches (see photo). I would like to know exactly how the tails are reeved through these items, and if it first passes through an additional block, on the jib sheet tracks for instance. Also how is the lee runner kept clear forward when slacked off?

Many thanks for any help on this.,
