Parts 55a, 55b, and 56 are the umbillical oxygen hoses for the LM crew. Although the cross section of the round hoses will be flat, he part is folded in half so that printing will be on both sides and to add a bit of depth to the part. The part is folded along the dotted line and there is an crosshair mark to help with the gluing alighment.
After cutting out carefully, the hoses are have to be curved and bent to finesse into position. The glue attachment points for the ends of the hoses are not clearly marked. I used another reference guide to figure out where to attach them. 55a was attached to the two black dots on the face of part 1 with the other end attached to the two white dots on the bottom part of the neck of 23 Suit Isolation Valve (right valve). 55b was attached to the two round marks on the inner right wall of the midsection with the other end attached to the bottom part of the neck of 24 Suit Isolation Valve (left valve). One fork of 56 was attached to the port on the face of part 1 that has the star mark which corresponds with the printing on part 56. The other fork of 56 was attached to the inner right wall of the midsection just above the attachment of part 55b. The double hose end of part 56 was routed between parts 23 and 24 Suit Isolation Valves. This seemed to correspond with other source diagrams. The other single hose end was terminated onto the neck of 23 Suite Isolation Valve (right valve). I did not see this single hose anywhere on other source pictures, but it seemd to be the logical place to attach it.
Part count to date: 76
