I did a swap in my 1972 Satellite from a 318 to a 440 and looking for radiator hose part numbers. It was a 318 car with AC and I am reusing that 26" radiator. The lower hose is passenger's side discharge, the upper is driver's side.

As a side bar, you should run a ground wire from one of the ignition box's mounting screw to one of the voltage regulator's mounting screws to a manifold mounting bolt, near the back of the engine. A #12 AWG, stranded copper wire. This would insure that both devices are properly connected to the engine (ground)....the freshly painted firewall produces a poor ground connection......just my opinion of course....

After much trial and error and returned parts the answer to my question is:
Upper is Gates 20370
Lower is Continental C70438
