I've had no issues declaring mods with Swintons (not the best neither) but with the insurance, only declare items that will give a performance gain over stock (IIRC 5% above the manufacturers stated BHP). Most insurers will only take note of Supension changes (if their significant) exhausts and custom bodywork.
Braided hoses are a replacement part (its common practice to' as OEM hoses cost silly money) and don't affect the performance*.
Cowls would normally be a noted addition (if they even list it!)
*To be really anal about it they're a safety improvement technically as the brakes act with less force needing to be applied
