I would have gone OEM on the heater hoses rather than FCP, http://www.tascaparts.com/partlocator/index.cfm?siteid=213668
Sells parts at 10% above cost and they will fit and guarenteed for 2 years at any Volvo dealer.
As to getting 'new' oil cooler lines... are there any hydraulic shops around? They can replace the rubber/flexible portion for much cheaper. The only problem is the car will have to sit for the duration. Check Volvospeed forum search for those who have gone that route. Take photos of the hose routing before removing them, and beware of that 10mm bolt that holds the bracket to the block - easy to remove and almost impossible to get back in.
