Rookie Meets Turbo ID and Lower Hose problem 700 1990

My brick has a TDO4H, which is oil cooled, if I read the turbo ID section correctly. Still the lower radiator hose from the Volvo dealership is nearly $75.00. VolvoWorld has it for $20.05, TheVolvoSite has 2 choices $14.11 or $8.28 and IPD has it for around $25 or $30. Any help or ideas?

Rookie Meets Turbo ID and Lower Hose problem 700 1990

For the year, it should be water cooled ...

Take a look at the lower radiator hose now ... if it's got a section with a small hose coming out the middle, then it is proper for the type and year. Confirm with the lower priced places that the hose you're getting does have that section - because that's the line to the turbo.

Some places just cross reference with normally aspirated 740's, which don't have that section.
