During my recent trip to Carlisle for the Mopar show, I came across a nice, original dual snorkel air cleaner. This had attached, what appeared to be the factory original molded hose for the breather. The ribs on the hose make me believe this could be the original.
My car had the loopty loop hose installed. Hated the way it looked and would kink at times.
Searching Amazon for molded hoses, I came up with this $9 Gates #18789 hose. Trimmed it a bit and viola! Looks damn close to the one I saw (except the ribbing of course)

Hope it helps some!

Thank you!
 
I need the same hose for my '66 Imperial with that same bit.
