What arrangements are there for the heating vents ?

Does it have the black rail with 2 vents screwed to it like a 1967 ?

I'm trying to fit has much original kit back on, a friend of mine as refurbished the Lucas single wiper motors and it will have the heater ducts which go up each side of the motor, I'm fitting the original smiths heater round but toying with the idea of fitting a defender type as well,
I've stalled out again on the rebuild!.. There's always something else to do, I found another picture of it when o collected it,
