Default Q:Connecting free flow oil Filter to 59 AB Flathead

I want to connect the free flow oil filter to my 59 AB flathead, but the engine builder is currently not available. We are wondering where the connecting hoses are to be attached to the engine block !
We guess:
1) The TOP PIPE on the block is the FEEDING PIPE ( sender ) for the oil to go into the BOTTOM OF the oil Filter Housing, pushing the oil through the dispenser.
2) The BOTTOM PIPE on the block is the RECEIVING PIPE ( receiver ) for the oil connecting to the TAP ON THE SIDE OF THE OIL FILTER HOUSING, where the filtered oil is going back into the engine.

OR IS IT THE OTHER WAY AROUND?

I would appreciate some help on this.
