Default Pic Request - 93+ LT1 heater hose

Was hoping someone could take a pic for me of the heater hose that wraps around the power steering reservoir. I replaced my heater hoses today with new AC Delco hoses but don't really like the way the upper heater hose is pressed against the reservoir, doesn't seem right and I can't remember if the OEM hose did it or not, but when I matched it back up it looked like it did. I placed a foam adhesive strip on the reservoir to prevent any chafing of the hose. Please see pic and tell me if this looks normal.

Mine doesn't touch. I'd post a pic if I knew how.

Really looks like it needs to be "over" the conduits and twisted CCW just a bit.

Man that is dirty!

It turns out the hoses were backwards. This whole time I've owned the car the heater hoses have been routed this way and I have been none the wiser. I reversed the hoses so the bottom hose went into the top of the water pump and vice versa. Now it is dead on to what the FSM shows and what everyone's pics are showing. Thanks for the help!!
