Ditto.
With only one main and a genie I have an unused port.
I have considered, but not implemented, using the third as a fill port with a long enough hose to reach the main & gen fills. The XChg discharge easily drained after emptying eng so it should work if one preferred 5 gal pails of oil vs 1 gal.
