Finished? Never!
I wasn't happy having to twist the lower hose to connect it to the stock divider, so I made another. The switch is out of the way and out of sight below the lower tree, the upper hose connects to the side of the new divider and the lower hose connects to the front of the divider.
Not sure if I like the look of this divider though, more procrastination required me thinks.

imo painted black will blend it in better

My OCD says, it would look better with both delivery pipes exiting sideways or both coming out the front - but not a mixture of both.

Not an option, the top hose would have to be twisted 90 degrees. Doesn't mater anyway, it was ugly, so today I made another. The lower hose now connects at the back of the unit, along with the switch. Instead of having the main body tucked under the triple tree, it now extends to the front. This one is rounded so looks a lot better. I gave it a quick polish, tomorrow I'll connect it and see how it looks, got to be better than the other one though.
Good fun drilling a 1/8" hole through 130mm, had to drill from both ends and put a screw blanking plug in one end. And boy was it good fun rounding off the front of it.
