More info on NAPA hoses...

The NAPA p/n's that come up as interchanges for the two below-listed Ford
parts are 10777 (u-tube) and 10856 (the other one). The NAPA version of the
"other one" doesn't look quite like the OEM version (the two I was going to
splice together would have been closer, actually) and it's pretty pricey
($22!), but it fits and looks fine once installed.

It's handy to have a spare engine to test things out on!
