Yesterday I pulled a total rookie move while replacing the water pump on my '01. Will somebody go lift the hood and verify the hose routing for me please?

I replaced both of the hoses that run up to the heater core but can't remember or figure out which hose goes into which fitting.

Does the hose that attaches to both the water pump AND the coolant reservoir connect to the heater core fitting that is on the drivers side of the truck? Or is that the hose that goes onto the fitting that is on the passengers side?

Sorry for the stupid mistake and question. I shouldn't even call it a rookie question because a rookie would pay more attention before and during disassembly!

Thanks in advance for the help.

So the hoses into the firewall are side to side, pass to drivers side I'll call them. The fittings go on the water pump front to back on the pass side!! So, the drivers side one on the firewall goes into the front fitting on the waterpump and that hose has a Y in it before it goes into the water pump. The other hose goes from the pass. side of the firewall into the back fitting on the water pump and that hose has no Y fitting on it!! Hope that makes sense!
