I'm replacing the accumulator and orifice tube with Motorcraft parts.

Hi
I cannot speak to the quality of either type you reference, however, you can buy a new Motorcraft from rockauto.com for $219, and they will carry the accumulator and hose in Motorcraft too, and at a much better price than your local dealer and about the same as y2kford.com. Rockauto is outstanding. I have purchesed, returned and exchanged with them on a number of occasions with no problems at all.
Good Luck
