You would need a longer line from the side of the canister to get that fitting attached to the pressure source. Most stovebolt filter canister side fittings face toward the rear of the vehicle and make the line routing simpler.

Well, that's just swell. Glad I spent the $30+ on the catalog hoses.
Unless I'm missing something, there's no way to turn it around. The little bracket that accepts the u bolts is part of the cannister.
Guess I can keep my hoses and find another can. Or keep my can and find new hoses. Frustrating, but glad we had this discussion. I would have never guessed.
