Attach label to Separator split quantity

I am trying to use the separator to split the flow items. I have given split Quantity as 2, now the items which are leaving the separator I need to attach label Type 1 for first flow item and Type 2 for second flow item.

How to achieve this. I am attaching the model for your reference.

In this model I use the object's output value to figure out which item is currently exiting. So when the first item leaves the output is 0 so I assign it type 10. The second gets type 9 ... and then the 10th item gets type 1. The 11th item then gets type 10 again.

int splitQuantity = 10;
int curNum = splitQuantity - current.stats.output.value % splitQuantity;

item.color = Color.fromPalette(curNum);
item.Type = curNum;
