The hoses are a mixture of flexible rubber and hard steel tube. All appear new/unused.

And lastly, the box has this marking on it. Does this help with dating the box? (Sorry don't need help determining the value the box might sell for if we save the cardboard! )

Looks to be for the M3 Grant/Lee tanks.
Quite similar but not exactly the same as the system used on the Staghound.

The hydraulic motor is the same as on the Staghound armored car.
Attached photo from the motor in my Staghound.
Nearly impossible to get a good photo from the dataplate..

Download the manual TM9-1750H Hydraulic Traversing Mechanism(logansport) for Medium Tank M3 here: http://www.theshermantank.com/downlo...-like-manuals/

Early Sherman tanks also used the Logansport system: http://www.theshermantank.com/sherma...r-of-the-tank/

HTH,
