[quote=jgregs][quote] Instead of the line, the two hooks fix both double blocks to the sail grommet.[/quote]

Yeah the top end makes sense to me since it is similar to what I did on Snipes I was on (the block with a hook attaches to the sail tack)

[quote]And for the lower end, you have some of the blocks and the two cleats here, just at the right of the blue screw driver, on each side of the mast I would presume[/quote]
Yup and I believe these would be where the two terminal ends feed through into the cockpit.

[quote]The missing blocks are probably attached directly to the mast somewhere, I see an eye strap there that could take a block or a double block.[/quote]

This is where I'm stuck as well. The eye strap is on the front of the mast so I assumed it was used for the job in some capacity. I don't think I've ever seen a downhaul connect and then wrap 180 around the mast - is that a thing?

Here is a better view of that eye strap opposite the downhaul cleats on the front
