Default Power Steering lines

I started to rebuild my 298 a while ago, now I am coming to put everything back together I cannot remember which line goes to which part on the Power steering system

I have the line from the pump and the line from the resevoir.

I have on my steering rack 2 places to fit these, one is higher than the other but I cannot remember which way round they were

Can anyone tell me

THanks

Only real question mark is probably two rack connectors. Morehouse tech CD has yearly changes docs. '78 MY doc has a lot of info useful in all later years. IIR it has this info too on very descriptive drawings.

Isn't Malta generally Right Hand drive - vague memories from a holiday many years ago.

Pic above is LHD. But the pipe connection points are the same.

Return Line connects nearer to the steering wheel than the Pressure line.

Pressure line fixes to the Engine Crossmember below the return line - the tabs to bolt the pipes in the centre off crossmember should give this away.

If you need pics (albeit off a 90) for RHD let me know as I have it all exposed at the moment.
