All of it Andrew.
From the radiator hoses to the coolant T in the rear of the van.

 -what sort of/how many connectors there are and where they are

I do not have acess to a lift and this was the easiest as it didn't require
the use of a lift to get the single length pipes above the fuel tank.
The connection where the two pipes went together is silicone hose, and I
used new to me double stainless silicone hose clamps at each connection.
They do not pinch the hose at all.
There are two bands within each clamp to prevent this from cutting the hose
as it is tightened down.

-price.

$415.00 plus $59.00 shipping

There is no welding of the pipes I have in the Van.
They are bent to fit as the old plastic pipes did.

Have a nice evening,

Ron
