That's the PS return hose coming down at top center, and the gaping hole is in the compressor line to the evaporator.
I moved the PS hose out of the way, it was nicely nestled into the compressor line.

Looks like I just found out why the AC never worked, and pretty soon the PS will quit too!

This exact same failure just occurred on the 93 245 a few months ago. I would suspect all 240 will have this problem, and it is very hard to see.

And these hoses are no longer available!
