[DeTomaso] Techno question: L Pantera lower engine right angle cooling hose

If you don't end up buying the steel 90* pipe from a vendor (or fabbing
your own), you just need to spend more time at Napa, in the hoses.
I apologize up front I can't find the part number. I used to keep a
spare in the Pantera all the time just in case that one hose blew.
Napa carries a very nice hose with two 90* bends. You cut this hose in
half and end up with two replacement hoses, very nice.
Again, I'm sorry I don't have the part number.

Do you mean this tube? I have a very vague recollection that metal was
preferred because the rubber hose might collapse due to being hot and
so close to the water pump inlet?

Chuck,
If you try to order that alone from a vendor what you will likely get
is a metal 90 and two straight sections of hose.
