Default Water Hose Connection @ Intake

My fuel line is in the way at the Water Hose Connection @ the intake. Previously with my GM manifold, the intake hose rested right up against the chromed dual inlet fuel line fitting. That is most likely not the best scenario for the heat transfer to the fuel. These lines are hard to seal to the carb as it is without doing a bending job on them....any thoughts? Pics are appreciated. I have a 69 Coupe 427 with Brodix heads, Edelbrock Air Gap Intake, A/C

I currently have an Edelbrock Air Gap intake that offers two connections - one on the passenger side of the thermostat housing and one on the driver's side. Can I use either one?

I would prefer to keep the connection on the passenger side since the hose goes in that direction, but am open. I even thought of a 45 or 90 degree fitting.... maybe if I used the driver's side, I may have to go with a 90 degree fitting.
