This ^!! Don't ask me how I know... Don't bother about the wire clips where the tubes connect to the T-joints. They are a nuisance there and for the tubes it's impossible to become loose accidentely. Personally I don't have them at the petcock either, provided I have the 5,5 mm ID tubes.

Johnny4428:
No clips either for me.

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
I fitted spring clips at the carb end whilst the carbs were off.
No clips at the tap end though as less heat and easy access.

The problem with spring clips at the T-joints is, if you forget to position them correctly, their little ears block access to the #2 and #2 airscrews.
