Carl:- Sorry about the non-explanation!. I use OMS Wings & Backplate,doubles
and 
Isolation manifold. 

right hand post(looking from the rear):- Reg with long hose + Inflator for
wings 
(Secondary) All down that side.

left hand post (looking from rear):- Reg with std hose,Wings inflator(Primary), 
suit inflation  + Pressure gauge.(Suit inflator and wings inflator run inside a 
neoprene sleeve that covers convoluted hose - all come under left arm). Regs
are 
Poseidon hence it really does not matter that the are over different shoulders

If the hoses are run OK the reg's are close to each ear - it is pretty easy to 
detect which one has gone ape.
