You may get points for originality (or, more correctly not get deduct points 
for not having yellow strip hoses) but you would get deduct points for having 
old, cracked, leaky hoses.  That's called maintenance.

I suspect this guy must deal in Porsches or Mercedes' where folks will pay 
stupid money for original parts.

Old hoses, like old tires, dry out, Crack and need to be replaced. Makes no 
difference what "pattern" is on the outside, if they won't hold pressure. I 
don't see how a rubber part could ever be a 'collectible.' Maybe for concours 
use, they'd have a value but...

Little did I know the hoses were worth as much as I paid for the car...
