Brake (flex) lines: believe description... or PHOTO?

A properly suspensioned Ranger can be safely airborne for up to 4 seconds at a time! =:O
Have ordered from Rock Auto several times, various suspension and exhaust related parts, very satisfied. Usually, if the photo of a part is "representative", i.e. not necessarily the version for YOUR vehicle, accompanying text says so... read on.

Going to "The Rock" again, this time for all 3 flexible lines in the Ranger braking system. Truck is listed to left, relevant parameters for brake parts: 4WD, RABS, 10" drums (i.e. 2-wheel anti-lock, i.e. Rear ABS only).

Problem arises when description of a hose for MY truck has photo that differs from what I actually see on MY truck. Part I actually see is then found in photo for different Ranger, e.g. RWD and/or 4-wheel-ABS, etc... will get exact cross-matching details in a couple days, but... SHOULD I GO WITH PHOTO OR DESCRIPTION???

Thanks in advance, details and actual part #'s to follow.

OK, started with all Raybestos (a brand I'm familiar with), but now have better matches with some Dorman parts (brand I know nothing about).

It's great that you include OEM/Alternate part #'s in the detailed listings, but how do I find the OEM #'s? Are they printed on the original factory hoses?

Anyway, please check my intended order against my model Ranger:

RAYBESTOS Part # BH38813 (Rear Center)
DORMAN Part # H380931 (Front Left)
DORMAN Part # H380357 (Front Right)

Thanks in advance.
