Scott, as soon as I saw your reply, I went out and looked at the repro heater hose I have and I see what you mean. My original hoses definitely have a different look where the weave appears to show through ( as seen in the pics), only 2 raised ribs, and a different stamping (style). I've installed the new heater hoses so the breather hoses now look very different. I though maybe the weave look was due to age. So, now I need to decide whether to leave the original hoses on, or take them off, save them and use repro hose.
