There is no way I would even post a picture of my pigsty right now, so yeah, I know what you mean.

It's pretty hard to hide the important stuff in neat, clean shop.

I tried heating it to get an offset in the 1" pvc to connect up with the manifold.
I could get an offset just not enough to get the pipe straight on.

I have seen a ribbed hose being used as manifold tubing, both accordian radiator style and a stiffer ribbed version used in comercial plumbing, I always thought it would aid in gas atomization with the huge amount of suction being drawn across the ribs , a texture that is most difficult to make from metal tubing is already produced in rubber. The ribbed version is what I would use, It is stiffer then the radiator and is belted like a tire, you could stand on 4 and not bend them but can be bought to size or cut to fit. I just need to find out if they are still being made and who makes them.
