Default Odds of flopping a set in Omaha holding 2 pair in your hand

Just what the title says, say you are holding 2 pair in your hand such as AAKK what are the odds you will flop a set? Thanks in advance.

The probability you flop a set of aces which may include a set of kings is 2*46c2/48c3 = 11.9% .

The probability you flop a set of kings which is the best possible set is 2*44c2/48c3 = 10.93% .

The probability you flop at least an ace or a k is 1-44c3/48c3 ~ 23.42%

Working on the principle that in hold 'em it is 7-1 and if you have 2 pair it must be roughly half of this given you hold 2 more cards making the odds a little more favourable so c. 3.3-1?, as there are 2 less cards in the deck.

Not exactly sure about this analysis though.
