Fuel Hoses Unavailable?

[Otto Man]

I gotta a couple questions.
I'm gonna have the local Ford Service Dept change the leaky pinion seal on Wednesday and while they are back there change the fuel pump and filter. I kind of wanted to replace all the hoses back there too, including the filler hose. Parts Dept says hoses back there are no longer made! Is there another source (other than AT6 SVO) for these hoses?
I have no reason to suspect they are even bad, but I thought it'd be a good idea.
Also, they asked if the pump is rail mounted (not available) or in tank? I think 85.5's are in tank, correct?
Thanks

Baaah....i wouldnt worry about the hoses to be honest man...and yeah the fuel pumps are in-tank.

They will try and convince you that one is on the rail....till they actually look.

Thanks Gator
I won't worry about it.
Did you get the tape???? Eric....did you get your's?
Is this a good time to replace the fuel level sending unit? My gas guage is all over place these days.

As for the the level thingy, have em take a look at it, might be stickin' due to sitting for so long.
