Default C60X exhaust

Keith, have you or Mike found any reference to the RAAF refuellers having the exhaust re-routed (or originally specified)with the muffler behind the front bumper? I have been rold this was done to:
1. Keep the hot exhaust pipe away from the AVGAS, and
2. Keep the exhaust gas away from the operator who stood next to the truck while transferring fuel.
This was a design feature that was reputedly recommended for the ACCO after good results on the refeullers.
