My SBF expansion tank came with the aluminum spacer block (about 2 inches wide?) that the tank sits on and that bolts to the front of the intake manifold water outlet but seems to be lacking the elbow that would connect a thermostat housing coming off the spacer block to the outlet running directly down and bellow from the expansion tank bottom. It looks like I need some sort of "L" shaped radiator hose to connect the two? Or is their some sort of "L" shaped pipe connector available that I would use short hose connections on both ends to connect the thermostat housing to the expansion tank? Or is a super long (thick?) thermostat housing available with a 90 degree elbow for this application?

Thanks for your help.
