Though when I look at your site under

Volkswagen : 1981 : Vanagon Transport 4 Cyl 2L : Cooling System

I see

Cooling Hose Miscellaneous.
Radiator Hose
Water Pump
Water Pump Gasket

I went out and carefully inspected my two 4 Cyl 2L vehicles and didn't see
any of this.

Yes, it was a moving service.
