Expansion tank elbow?
 
My SBF expansion tank came with the aluminum spacer block (about 2 inches wide?) that the tank sits on and that bolts to the front of the intake manifold water outlet but seems to be lacking the elbow that would connect a thermostat housing coming off the spacer block to the outlet running directly down and bellow from the expansion tank bottom. It looks like I need some sort of "L" shaped radiator hose to connect the two? Or is their some sort of "L" shaped pipe connector available that I would use short hose connections on both ends to connect the thermostat housing to the expansion tank? Or is a super long (thick?) thermostat housing available with a 90 degree elbow for this application?

Thanks for your help.

I didn't go with a expansion tank but I needed a 90 degree elbow to get over the alternator belt; I bought it from CobraEarl and it works good with a GM type thermostat housing. Be sure to specify your thermostat size. I can't find the link or I'd give it to you but he hangs out here too.

Are you talking about the small by-pass hose? If so, they are available. If you are talking about the larger hoses, then you can do what I did. Stainless flexible hose.
