Flexibility of AN lines depends on the material of the hose, the fabric or Kevlar hoses are generally more flexible than true stainless. Assuming the hoses you have now are the Cool Flex brand you should be ok. The AN solution may look a little cleaner and the hydraulic swivel idea is intriguing but Cool Flex hoses are high quality and very durable. You should be able to open the engine cover for years without issue.
