Gary Goers sells also the rubber hose and says:
" .. you must use your original nut at the oil press gauge since
it has an oddball thread that is not available. A new crush
sleeve is provided " . # 537 A on catalog (57-59 oil oress gauge
line); 15.00 $
On my car before restoring it there was a leak at the gauge
fitting and i had drops of oil on my shoe .. The gauge is exactly
above the accelerator pedal ! I replace it with a gauge line from
a wrecked Imperial. This hose (1313 643) is also used on Chrysler
and nut / sleeve / elbow / are identicals on all '57 Mopar (i
haven't the 58-59 parts manual). It seems you need also 657039
elbow and 137396 nut
