Studebaker Avanti Steering Hose Help

The parts book shows only an early version of the hoses to the pump. The metal portion of these early hoses goes straight forward on the control valve. They route up, to the rear of the steering box. The metal portion of later pump hoses, like the Avanti, curves to the rear, like the hoses to the ram. I don't think Studebaker made a drawing that shows routing of these later hoses.

These pictures will help with the correct hose routing

This is the control valve from my '64 Avanti, with new hoses installed. I had to "adjust" the positions, after I mounted the valve in the car; but this is where I started.
