Specify which version of Python runs in Automator?

Question

In my terminal and in CodeRunner my Python is updated to 2.7.6 but when I ran a shell script in the OSX Automator I found that it is running 2.7.2

How can I update the Automator Python to 2.7.6 like the rest of my compilers ?

I couldn't specify explicitly which python for it to use. So, I ran it in bash environment with following command:

$ your/python/path /path/to/your/python/script.py

And make sure first line of your python program contains the path to the python environment you wish to use. Eg:

#! /usr/local/bin/python
