Why are the hoses all wrong?

Has anyone fitted an HKS type R oil cooler? After a lot of mucking about, I finally got to the point of connecting the hoses from the take-off plate to the new base-plate last night...and found they were too long.

 

Is there a positioning trick here, as in needing to rotate the take-off plate just right, or should I shorten the hoses to suit?

 

 

I just read the Earls guide for assembling the hoses - love the last section:

 

6. Check the mark that you made on the hose in Step 2. If the hose has backed more than about 1/16" out of the socket as you assembled it, curse and return to Step 3.
