I just checked RockAuto.com and at first glance it looks like they have a big selection for your car. Depends on what you mean by "inlet hose" though--I saw a heater inlet hose, but I don't know if that's the one. I couldn't tell you for sure what the hoses you are looking for are called.

It should be noted that you dont HAVE to replace that metal pipe if the hoses on the ends are the same diameter. You can just use standard "cut to fit" hose as long as it doesn't kink when you route it. I've done this in the past for those stupid heater hoses and for the transmission tubes. You just have to be careful about clearances and kinking.

Well, those bends are all almost exactly 90 degrees. Why not solder up a new piece w/ copper using 90* elbows? $10 worth of copper, $10 for a propane torch and some solder & flux, 20 minutes worth of labor. :) Or, if you are really desperate, just use threaded black pipe fittings. In either case, you probably wont be replacing it again (which obviously wouldn't be the case if you used the Ford part).
