Need to know where I can find  oil pressure hose for a 69. The one I am talking about is the one that runs from the engine to oil pressure gauge.

Any local parts store should have this.  I just replaced mine last weekend and got the hose and brass fittings from the local NAPA in the small town where I live.

  Hi, this Flandy.  I would recomend using some 1/8" nylon tubing, as it is way more flexible, and still works with compression fittings. You need some1/8 sleeve's or ferrule's.  as they are called by some, and all you do is get the old metal line out and replace with the nylon.  Clear is better in my mind as you can see the oil in it from yhe driver's side

 I would advise you to order the "L" shaped fitting to put on the rear of the guage, it prevents the hose from crimping , if it does crimp it can burst crack and then you will have an oily mess. You can get this from eklers or zip corvette,rd
