Probably both lines or down tilt/trim would rely on gravity and not work well.
One question - What the heck are you working on?
What you need isn't pressure lines, but rather with are up and which are down. The bottom fitting on the cylinder is "Up" and the top fitting is "Down".
Understandable to use a pump that can be serviced with available and affordable parts. Have you found the pump you want to use?
The new pump can go under the splashwell as Mercury did for older OBs and the pump used is a Mercruiser style. Many auto parts stores can make up the right length hoses based on your measurements and use the fittings from the cylinders and the new pump.
