discovered why I cant get the valve cover off. this hose appears to be routed wrong when compared other photos of engine bays I have seen on this site. what would be the correct routing for it? should it go underneath or behind the heater box and come back up around? I have to remove it anyways to get the valve cover off. might as we position it correctly.
thanks.

This is off my 56. it has the Bendix power steering on the car. There are no markings on the fitting. See attached photo
Hope this helps

may I ask how? does something else have to be loosened? I have tried twisting turning and rolling, I cant seem to get it high enough to clear the rocker shaft.
sorry photos just now loaded. going back out to try again.

Thanks Don & Howard! For the advice and options. I have a friend whose into 55-57 chevs, maybe he can score me a wiper motor
My motor was turning freely with the plugs out, it will go forward then stops & then backwards but reaches a point where it will not go any further. I have the left valve cover off but looks like I have to remove the heater box to get the right one off

What accommodations would that be Don? The dual action fuel pump I have read about?
On another note , I crawled under to drain the transmission fluid from the torque converter. Turning the engine over by hand. It turned freely 5 or 6 times then suddenly stopped, meeting some resistance of some sort. I can turn it forward and backwards but can't go past a certain point. What should I be looking for here? Stuck valve? Cylinder damage? Thank you
