Well, I think I just added $500 to the value of my car because I have the
original tape. It looks like common old 1' wide masking tape, but it's
not. It was something special available only for a few years. Impossible to
replace or duplicate......kind of like the original rivets:-)

Oh great. Here come the concours guys!
What kind of tape is it? How wide? How far up each pipe? Is it wound
clockwise or anticlockwise? How much overwrap? After 40 years, how much should
be peeling off?

I noticed that my original metal pipes in that area had some kind of tape
marking where the rubber pipes have to align on the metal pipe. Without
some kind of marking it is pretty hard to tell how far to slide the rubber on
to the metal. Slide on too far and the opposite end will come up short,
resulting in a possible leak.
