Hey all,

I'm in search of a little help in figuring out the name of and/or part
number of a weeping hose I just spotted on my 78 300d U.S. (automatic
transmission).

Something that looks more like a cable housing than a liquids hose
exits the firewall behind and slightly to the left* of the oil filter
housing.  The "cable housing" then routes below the chassis, where it
connects to the weeping hose in question.  The hose runs to the left*
of the transmission and is approx 3 ft long.  The hose terminates at
the rear* of transmission just before* the drive shaft becomes
visible.  It is not held to the "cable housing" by hose clamps; it is
held on by a small metal band at each terminus.

*(Directions are listed as if described my someone in the driver's
seat.)

Any ideas? A part name and/or number would be a huge help.

Thanks,
erik
