I feel sore thumbs and swearing coming on... Getting them back together is a PITA..

Haynes manual has some good photos, few "copys" on the web in PDF..

Looking at your's big vee..

I would say the bottom spring spring is the wrong way round

and should sit in the gap between the shoes,not rub on the shoe

Might be wrong thou

jossey's pic looks like mk3 cavalier/astra/calibra.

you can see the caliper hanger at the top. the handbrake acts as a drum brake in the bell of the disc.
