Context: I dissembled the tubes from my Eisbaer LT360 and Eiswolf GPX 240 Pro (for 2080Ti) without taking a picture first, and now I'm trying to confirm which is inlet vs outlet and whether a red tube should go on the outlet (and blue for inlet).

Here are the reference materials I used:

Photo of Eiswolf from a random build picture I found online:
My observations are:
1. The GPX Pro pump housing as inlet and outlet clearly marked and the red tube is consistently connected to outlet and blue for inlet
2. The Eisbaer LT pump has a couple inconsistencies:
2.1 The user manual of it clearly indicates (pg 6) the upper port as inlet and lower port as outlet (when the ports are on the right)
2.2 The expansion diagram in user manual (pg 20) shows a red tube connected to outlet and connected to blue tube inlet on GPX Pro pump
2.3 The cover of the user manual shows a uncolored quick release tube connected to the upper port; this is inconsistent with the expansion diagram on which port the quick release tube is connected to
2.4 The product image shows a blue tube connected to upper port: this is inconsistent with the expansion diagram on the color and the position of the quick release tube
2.5 My Eisbaer LT240 comes with a short red quick release tube with a 90 degree angled connector
2.6 All the user pictures of Eisbaer LT I can find shows a red quick release tube connected to the upper port (inlet) of the pump
The last point above means a couple of things:
1. It's inconsistent with the convention of connecting a blue tube to inlet or red tube to outlet
2. Trying to mix Eisbaer and Eiswolf in the same loop with this arrangement will cause 2 pumps to be pushing against each other!!!
I'm looking for confirmation on:
1. my understanding above is correct
2. Eisbaer LT indeed has the upper port as inlet and lower port as outlet (when the Eisbaer logo is facing upwards and ports are on the right)
3. Eiswolf indeed has the left port as outlet and right port as inlet (as marked on the housing, when the alphacool logo is facing upwards and ports are on the bottom)
