Block to heater hose tube

G Guest
I have two questions for my Pantera engine rebuild process. First I need the heater hose tube for the cleveland block. Where can I buy it or who can provide it. The second question is, what are the better valve shaft seals the brown hard ones or the normal black rubber FelPro stuff?

Thanks Andreas (Germany)

Most auto parts stores can order it, but they are expensive and still thin steel. The hole in the block is just the right size to tap to 3/8 pipe thread. I tapped mine and screwed in a normal 3/8 pipe to 5/8 hose fitting. No worries anymore. I even put a pipe elbow on mine and run the hose over the other side of the engine.
