Examples for twofish cipher that you may want to try.

Kerneli.org compatible mode:

  losetup -e twofish256 -H rmd160 /dev/loop0 /dev/hda99
                        ^^^^^^^^^

Old SUSE compatible mode:

  losetup -e twofish160 -H rmd160 -I 1 /dev/loop0 /dev/hda99
                    ^^^ ^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^

Mainline util-linux compatible mode:

  losetup -e twofish256 -H unhashed2 /dev/loop0 /dev/hda99
                        ^^^^^^^^^^^^

Binary key compatible mode (IIRC, Gentoo used this):

  cat filename | losetup -p 0 -e twofish256 -H unhashed3 /dev/loop0 /dev/hda99
                         ^^^^               ^^^^^^^^^^^^
