Thanks. For whatever reason my engine came with some that have a hose on the cooler side. But obviously it's easier/cheaper to do all metal.

Actually, I should be able to pick the ones off my car to use as templates.


The only stock rubber hoses Packard used were on the 23rd series Ultras but after that, as Kev said they were all metal. One reason you might have hoses at the cooler would be if some mechanic installed them after needing to move the cooler out of the way to change the lower radiator hoses. Sometimes the steel lines can be a pain and need to be disconnected because the cooler won't go very far and provide much extra clearance if they stay attached.
