I'm not aware of any particular angel.
My only suggestion is that it might refer to making sure the banjo is orientated
so that the fuel lines do not impede the carb controls and are clear of any
heat sources.
The only other thought is that with the fuel lines arriving from below then any
vapour locks forming are more likely to be expunged through the carb than
sitting
in the pipes at a high spot above the carb.
All IMHO
