need your expert opinion

Ok so my new fuel tank and sending unit finally came in, and it turns out, the sending unit appears to either be the wrong one (it's labeled correctly on the packaging) or it's for the passenger side....on the OEM unit, the 2 ports point inward toward the frame, with this tank, once installed, the ports point outward.

My question is that is it going to cause any problems down the road if I just make my fuel line loop a bit to make the turn? I don't want to cause kinks or anything down the road, but I don't want to go through the hassle of doing the whole return thing (got them from RockAuto)

Let me know what y'all think...my thinking is that as long as it isn't going to kink it should be fine, but i'm sure someone out there has had the same issue.

Thanks
