The rubber hose from the back of my fuel tank to the filler neck developed a leak. Part is obsolete and ford doesn't make it anymore. Searched everywhere on the internet but couldn't find it. Called a lot of parts stores. Problem is that this hose has 2 different diameters. It is molded a little and was informed that a straight length of hose is too ridged to make it work without crimping it. Part number is; F8OC-9047 AB. Need some ideas for a work around or finding the part. Called salvage yards but they pull the tanks and cut off the hoses. Pics below is what I am looking for. Vin # 1FAFP55U51A122885. Any ideas would help
