Yes, '32 lower hose was straight! Common cranked hoses to work from are 1940 and 1949 Ford ones...
Mounts basically fit the late engine...you will probably have slight interference with edges of waterpums--I would grind the pumps simply because radically less valuable than the mounts.
The lower pump pulley location on the 59 requires a very slight mount notch to clear the belt where it goes past...if you fit this area carefully, the notch can be very slight and entirely on the inner edge of the mount forging. Too many out there have been roughly and excessivel ground because someone was too lazy to check and make multiple trips to the grinder...
