Probably something like, "looks clean" and move on.

Beauty is subjective:
The curve of an elbow, or the swell of a cars hip,
A ballerina on her toe, or an engine without a drip.
The view of a night sky, or the first cotton gin,
A babies first cry, or engineering beauty of an engine.
That engine? Yep, if you can imagine the planning of the hoses, precision of the bends in the metal pipes, how all the hose clamps are aligned. You need to be able to see the engineering and planning, practice, love, whatever, that goes into what you see. If you cannot, then you will not see the beauty.
