This is a job you can do. Take it easy, totally zen. You may question the motives of the Porsche engineers a few times, question their parentage and refer to them in less than polite terms. This is normal. Breathe. Start again. This is a job you can do.

Yeah... I have already been through a few expletives in questioning why Herr Wiedeking would allow such a thing from his designers, but then again, the list could be long...

In hindsight, it makes me wonder if there is an easier way to do the swap, why can't the oil filler hose/grommet just stay in the car and all the trunk side hoses get detached?

check the coolant cap too

it could be the coolant cap and not the coolant tank. I screwed my cap on and got it cross threaded and coolant leaked out the same way yours did.
