Now, are the internal organs of an eel in its tail, looping around to the butt. Or are they all more or less in the head and the tail is just muscles and bone?

The tail is where the electric organs are The rest of the guts and stuff are all in the torso
Thank you for that link. I was puzzled though when I opened it and saw a cartoon elephant.
And what's he doing, spending money?
*electric eel. Electric eels are not eels.
🎶 When a mouth opens wide, and there's more mouths inside that's a moray~🎶
🎶 When he bites on your thumb, and takes a chunk of your bum, that's a moray 🎶
🎶 Tails will swing, swim a swim a swim, swim a swim a swim, and you’ll sing Vita Bella 🎶

I think you are using voyager
Should do legless lizard as well, i learned that to identify this creature i need to find their butthole.
So finally Have You Checked Your Butthole is the actual correct answer?
It looks like other eels don't necessarily follow the mostly tail body plan of electric eels; morays seem to be less than 50% tail by length
This diagram is still a better love story than Twilight
Why is the head part of the torso?
