I was thinking about doing that very same thing....  3 of my OEM hoses have
the yellowish plastic protection sleeve on the entire length to the
injectors... ONE does not.

Is this normal? Can these be re-routed such that they do not lay directly on
the engine block, and then would not need this heat sleeve protection?

Would be great to know the size, and type (if this is a special hose, or
anything).

Thanks!
