Can i cut the metal line off and use clamps to attach the rubber hose ??

NO NO NO

I just did this job 3 weeks ago on my 95. Do not try to clamp a new piece of hose on. The ford hose for under 30 bucks has the preformed metal and crimped on piece of hose. This hose, being under the intake needs to be much higher quality than regular heater hose from the auto parts store. The Ford part even comes with a new clamp for the water pump end. As much of a bitch as this job is do not scrimp to save 30 bucks - your time isn't worth it. You don't want to overheat this motor as reman heads go as high as a grand apiece. You don't want to warp one!!
