SOrry for being so dense, but how does this coupling attach to the hose?
There's no metnion of the hose at all on your drawing, and I thought that
was what we were trying to address here.

The hose is done away with Marv. Aluminum tubing is used for all
plumbing.
Never rots. Never collapses due to suction. Never burst from the
pressures
found in a coolant system. Will take more heat than most low cost hoses.
You weld up the system out of bends and stright peices and that it.
It last forever.

BTW you can use hose and hose clamps if you like. I personally have
had bad experience over the years with hose and hose clamps and I would 
like something more reliable for my airplane.
