The Heater Core Hose "J" Continental Elite 64304 displayed on Amazon fits perfectly and does have the larger end on the short end of the "J". perfect fit.

In the mean time I found that the Heater Core Top Clip can be easily removed and re-installed after the New Heater Core is in Place. Remove the CDM before Removing or Installing the New Heater Core and Top Clip. The Installation is a lot simpler with the CDM removed.

Without that Top Clip removed it might be almost impossible to re-install the Heater Core Tubes through the Fire Wall.

Heater Core Top Clip.
The Top Clip has a single 7mm head screw that can be removed once the Heater Core is removed. That screw and clip can be replaced once the New Heater Core is positioned reaching up under the hush panel with 1/4 inch socket wrench, 2 inch extension and 7mm socket. To replace the Heater Core without removing the Dash requires removal of the CDM.



The Details are described in Item #2A Replacing the Heater Core and Heater Hose Connection
