Smile ZF 6 External Filter Question

First I want to thank the men & women who contribute;answer the questions; solve the problems and share their experiences. I love reading it and learning from you. My question is about the flow of transmission fluid out of the ZF 6 speed transmission. I bought an external filter and thought it would be best to put it on the line coming out of the transmission to the cooler. The problem I have is that I don't know which line is the out flow & which is the return. The lines are one above the other. What do you think? Thanks for the help.

Bottom line is out flow and top line is return
