The truck hose should fit with a little trimming, but will probably rub the frame. I did that on my el camino for the last 120k miles and never had an issue. If you have to buy a new hose anyway you might want to try a Gates 20734, it is supposed to fit the G-Bodies very well and I Assume the 2nd gen would need a similar shaped hose.

You can also shape a piece of clothes hanger in the form of the intended hose, and go down to Pep Boys. If you ask nicely, an employee will let you behind the counter to compare against their inventory.
