Smog Pump or cat
I have a 89 F-250 5.8L with some melted high temp silicon hose. I have replaced pieces with new hose but it too melts this assembly comes out of the manifold tubes and to smog pump. Pump seems to be pumping . My question is it cat or possibly something else?Appreciate any help thanks JimD.

Smog Pump or cat
Saw that your question was hanging out here.
First off, welcome to FTE. Sometimes it takes awhile to get an answer.
Are the lines you are talking about from the block to the pump? Or are they the ones between the pump and the cat?
I wouldn't think that their would be any significant heat in the system. I would try radiator hose and wrap it in reflective tape.
Do you have an exhaust leak anywhere close to where they are melting?
Stabbing in the dark.
