A/C hoses used a different rubber one. The aluminum one was used on the heater hose according to the assemblyline manual however they did not end up on every car IMO.

If the straps were used there seems to be the possibility that different materials were used depending on assembly plant. Likely due to different suppliers

BTW you might want to add where your car was built in your signature. Thanks for adding what you have
