If you solve your SEM, you will see that m1 and m2 are exogenous for the block y, x1, x2

Hi Kit:
One difference is that x1 is entirely dependent on endogenous variables; so my naive question here is: which predicted values of x1 and x2 are included in Eq. 2 and 3 respectively (also knowing that x1 and x2 predict each other and that x1 has no unique instruments that predict it directly)?
Thanks,
John.
