Woah!...that's one nice block! Is that your car meek? An AC cobra? Looks like a small block ford v8....
Beautiful machine... I actually got an opportunity to sit in (on?) one not long ago,it was a bit of a squeeze though, my knees were level with my ears,i couldn't get my feet on the pedals,and my head protruded a foot or so above the stainless hoops that are supposed to protect your head in the event of a crash. It took 3 members of staff to pull me from the car as i'd got stuck in it... Cool machine... (till i got in it )

They might last longer than the average 10 years of the originals Tom.

im hoping that i wont loose too much coolant as its the top hose or should i just expect to replace the whole lot?

Flush the whole lot, unless it's been done recently IMO.
