Looked in to the best option for the fuel filler install. It seemed to me the Napa hoses were the easiest solution and done by several others.
Darkpt shared his install pic with me (thank you) but did not have the part numbers. Figured I post a pic with the stickers still on them for future builders.

One 90 degree and one 45 degree.

I cut the Mustang filler line just past the bottom curve leaving enough meat to attach the 45 degree hose. The left over piece gets cut in half for the connector piece between the two elbows.

Test fit the 45 degree hose

After determining the right size the small piece gets inserted in the top.
Then the whole piece can be put together but not tightened yet.

And installed

Hope this helps others.

I was able to make it work with one hose. :) So far, so good.
