Question Parking brake curiousity

Has anyone here poked their head underneath the Z and traced the parking brake cable? I've made the assumption that it does have an actual cable. I want to know if the line I saw entering the hub is for the emergency brakes & if so why is it where I thought I saw it?

The e-brake is located inside the hat like old corvettes.
It looks like a tiny set of drum brake shoe.i

That explains why the hat on the drum has such a large diameter compared to the rim. It looks so funny compared to the front(where the hat has the same diameter as the mating surface of the rim. Thanks for the info.
