Topic: 64.5 260 PCV hose, where to get a replacement?

NPD does not list the 260 PCV hose, is there a source for it or do you have to buy the 289 version and modify it? Mine has the brass PCV with the 90 degree angle.

The PCV hose currently sold has a C6AX-6A664-N part number stamped on it (which makes it incorrect for 1965 as well), but you can either remove the stamping, or remark it "XE-112634" which is what is shown in the 64 Ford Engine Equipment Manual, page 45; and cut off the bend to the 90 degree PCV valve you have. Two clamps, 97331-S8 are shown as being required. The "XE-" number is a preliminary engineering number.

Change the part number to C6AZ-6A664-N.

I have the original hose and clamps but the hose split when I removed the PCV valve. Was a bummer but the hose is hard as a rock and pretty sure it has no numbers left on it.

Upon further review (I'm watching KC at Indy NFL wild card game), the hose marked C6AZ-6A664-N should be marked C5AE-6A666-A or -B per AM0156 1966 Ford Engine Equipment manual, page 101. The part marked C6AZ-6A664-N is a service part number and as far as I know, there should be no service marked parts (indicated by the "Z") used on an assembly line car. The one I have was supplied by NPD and is in its original bag from Scott Drake dated 5/17/2005.
