That's not a loop, its a U shape.
Hugh,


A 'loop' does not necessarily cross its own path at the bottom...

For example, a loop in garments and canvas tents, is just a 'U' shaped part, which 'catches' on another part, hook, button, Etc..


In pattern it should be called another name, maybe, but anything shaped like an upright, or an inverted 'U' is a loop...

A cross-flow head in auto engines, has the intake on one side and the exhaust on the other.
Some other heads, which have both the intake and the exhaust on the same side, are not 'cross-flow'...

That's besides the point, however...
