The 2 metal hoses on passenger side valve covers
What are those 2 hoses called? Lord help me I've searched for them on forums left and right. The ones in the Mustang I recently bought are a little rusty and I want to replace them. And I don't have any time to stop somewhere to wait around for them to find them. I would like to know what they're called so I can just pick up and leave.

If like the earlier V-8, 5.0L, those would be the connections for the heater. The top one comes out of the intake manifold, carrying hot water to the heater core, while the bottom one returns the water to the water pump.
Not real familiar with 4.6L, though, I could be wrong. imp
