I'd say there's a very good chance that there will be some contact with the IM.

Can't you just bend the line towards the firewall?

I don't think that movement on the engines behalf will be drastic enough to affect the brake line in any way from doing its job. But if your that worried about it push it toward the firewall slightly with your thumbs making sure not to kink it anywhere and that should do the trick. Its either that or you are going to have to remake the line.
