Re: How are my cylinders looking?
Buy the stem seals in the kit, not by the piece. Since you live in the Health Care side of the Atlantic , you can get them from Skandix.de pretty cheaply

Is that the dreamy 421 Silver S70 AWD?
Turbo hoses ( two of them ) or the heater hoses to bulkhead. From the position amd flow, I would guess heater hoses. Visible ftom up top
