Cool deal Im_DANomite, thanks for the outline!
Keeping the drive shaft attached to the tranny is a good idea.
My dumb-*** tried to keep the tranny angled so the fluid wouldn't come out.
Worked fine until I started to lower it with a trans-jack and the oil started coming out.
Needless to say, I just drained the fluid out completely.
Oh well... live and learn

That hose can barely be seen, let along photographed. But I gave it a shot. Three, taken standing on the driver side of the car. Not the whole thing...just what the camera and flash could see.
In 1656, is it the hose just above the brake reservoir and the hose from the brake booster? And below the AC line, which is the fatter metal tube/hose at the top?
In 1660 it angles forward and turns down. It's in the center of the picture, passing behind the blue thing. You can see a bit of the dipstick (yellow) and at the top a little of the oil filter is visible.
1661 is a little wider shot. You can see three bends: first one down, then one angling forward, then one turning down.
From there it goes down and the next bend is to the rear. It does another zig into a fitting maybe 6 inches below the oil filter fixture.
Hope this helps you identify it, and maybe find it in the pile of extra parts. Or figure a replacement with generic heater hose.
