Default Power steering hose "Insulators"

Hi guys, I am hoping somebody on here can help me out. I am putting the power steering hoses on my 65 Biscayne, but I need the foam/rubber stuff that goes around the hoses where the clamp is. Both lines have it. Does anybody know a place that makes this stuff?
Thanks
Steve

Hi Steve:
I bought it from GM about 2 years ago.Might be worth a try there first.Came in a two foot length. Not sure of the part number but I can dig and check if need be since I bought extra for the 66.

Is that the same material that goes around AC hoses on a 69 Camaro? I never have found the piece I need.

Hi Steve:
Took a quick run to moms since I knew where this was.It is GM group 4.845 part number 367743.It is made by Armstrong called Armaflex 5/8" id x 3/16" nominal wall. If you cannot get it from Gm looks like armstrong still makes it. It comes up as a standard pipe insulation.
Hope this helps Joe

Look in your Yellow Pages for an industrial insulation supply house. They keep it in stock. Hopefully, they will have the size you need. He'll probably give it to you....especially if he's a car guy.
