[Mgs] Oil bummer

My memory could be failing me but I believe in aircraft similar hoses have a
7 year lifespan - at that point they are supposed to be replaced. However,
it is not a requirement. I've had my B since '84, still has the same hoses.
Next service I may pull and inspect them.

Only 11 years?  Fooey.  If MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) of every part
on the car was 11 years, you would be fixing something that failed almost
daily.  I want parts that will last 50 years or more.
