The Mk-10s provided plenty of options for configuration, so the hoses were
fine.  They were on the OMS Y-valve.  I set it up so that the Mk-10 pointed
upward on the primary regulator, and downward on the backup.

I had a little more difficulty with the Odin first stage on the genesis
valve on the left tank.  I got the hoses to go almost exactly where I
wanted them to go, but not quite (close enough that I didn't need elbows).

The ponies (which are upside-down, as you may recall) fit perfectly for
hose positioning.

Aloha,
Rich
