Does anyone have a source for the 5" black flexible duct that runs to and from the blower motor and vent pipe on the 1951-54 Packards?

The Southern California Chapter of Packards International sells the correct style and material of tubing. It's not to expensive either. Looks way better than the corrugated dryer vent stuff.

I want to thank all who offered suggestions for the duct, however, $60.00 is a little steep to spend on the Rodney Dangerfield of the Packard lineup, so I looked at McMaster Carr. I'm gonna try their Pt# 5501K64. At 3.43/foot,
five foot minimum order, it fits my budget a little better.
I am going to pick it up in a couple of days, (Mc Master Carr is 2 miles from me,). I"ll report how it worked.
Thanks,
Casey Rog

Looks like you also got your "caps lock" key stuck as well. PB Blaster works well for fixing that.
