Oil cooler port and filter clearance.

I’m working with Tom to measure new hoses and I’ve run into a potential issue with the lower oil cooler port on the accessory case and the oil filter adapter. With the straight fitting on the case I’m not sure how any hose fitting will not hit the filter. Anyone else encountered this? Will I need to switch to an elbow on the accessory case?

They make hose fittings with 45 or 90 bends in them also. I think that is what I used for this fitting in the 10. A 45* AN fitting is probably the cheaper option.
 
I ended up ordering a hose from Tom that had a 45* end. It fit when installed and clocked slightly away from the oil filter.
