I realize this isn't 100% correct but I thought the hoses were.

Looks like the vacuum hose to the rear intake port (behind the the intake side of the back fire hose to the vacuum block/"T") looks replaced with a longer hose


The upper three going into the idle conspensator block appear to be  - Interesting collection of clamps :)  - appear to be the same as the ones shown in the unrestored car picture I posted 

When was this car built - guessing its the Dearborn built car - 7F93S591808?

That hose was replaced recently as I was having some vacuum issues and the short one that was there had reached the end of its service life. Dearborn- 4/28/67.  I didn't want to muddy the waters of the OP with pics but would that be appropriate?

preaction - Lets try this. Email me the pictures we'll look and discuss what you have. From there we can decide if they fit or don't given the difference (build dates)  between the two vehicles. Sure there will be something of value but looking out for the distractors - this is such a multifaceted subject
