But does have anything in the hose. Texture looks not right. Please help

The lower hose can come with a spring in it and is better with one IMO. The upper hose does not need a spring if that is what you are asking. The texture on the hose looks great and very similar to assemblyline compared to typical smooth no texture repros and service replacements .

The ink stamp on the repro's are usually covered up with plastic and a label to protect them from getting scuffed.
