If you take a PDB file from the solution for the hexagonal form as your
input model for a translation search in P1, then the cross-rotation peaks
that rotate the hexagonal data onto the P1 data should be the correct
orientations. (Phaser uses the same definition for Euler angles as ALMN.)
I'd give a generous list of orientations, because the translation searches
are very fast. These should include symmetry equivalent cross-rotation
peaks, because there's only one copy of the model and you don't know which
symmetry-related orientation to apply to that one.

What you would like to see (apart from a clear solution!) is that the two
orientations are related by the same rotation that you see in the P1
self-rotation function.
