This looks at least close. How does the crossbar and fan housing 
fit? That's the key. You may have to adjust the angular position of 
the 3 upper street elbows to get them to clear completely. Those 
elbows are the ones Berg sells, but I use 1 standard street elbow 
from the hardware store for one of those to give a better fit; the 
standard ones are longer in one dimension, and that is useful, I 
think for the middle elbow.

IIRC the hose that comes out of the pump goes to the port that 
feeds the center of the filter. Often there is a cast in marking on the 
filter base saying "IN" at the right location. I have always found this 
confusing, too, since it's not clear which way the filter expects the 
oil to flow thru it, and, yes, it matters.

Looks to me like a fitting just in case you need to add another right 
angle bend at the end of one of your hoses.

I see you got the pressure relief pump cover, too. That's a nice 
touch, especially for colder climates.
