I took a few snapshots when I installed mine, I remember being confused a bit with how to route the hoses at first as well. The instructions are not very clear.

They go from the engine port where they are just pushed on through the mounting bracket, through the filter backing plate and around the aluminum venturi like in the second pic. The illustration in the instructions looks different, they have the hose rotated weird.

No, it was tight though. There is not a lot of clearance built into those holes.
