Totally agree, most of the KV hose markings I've seen the "K" isn't even in the ballpark.
I may have to see what I can do to replicate it myself, a difficult task, but if I have to do the EB line, It'll just be another marking.

So have you ever seen where the hose on the front and back don't match?
Hard to believe I got the very last section of EB and they were forced to use KV in the back.
