I actually obtained original clamps from Smitty.  They are similar to
hose clamps, but not nearly as beefy.  Also, there are rubber 90 deg
elbows that are supposed to attach the hoses to the diffuser box (on
the driver's side only, I think).  They make it so the hose does not
protrude straight out.  Smitty may have some. I got mine from him.  He
also supplied aluminum tube inserts that are necessary to attach the
hose to the elbows.
