If you have enough R12 to get through the foreseeable future, then sure. Otherwise, now is the time.
Call acsource and ask for Warren, tell him pesky jd sent you. I think he's a motorcraft dealer. Call early in the day, say 0700. Your E350 cutaway shouldn't be different than other E150-350 for years of production. I don't understand the problem. You may also be able to go to a shop that fabricates hoses. Many NAPA stores, a franchise called Masthead, I'm sure others. If you have that done, make sure they "clock" the ends so they install without twist on them. In other words, if Fitting B faces same as Fitting A, then the replacement should be fabbed with that same facing.
If you decide to replace the evaporator, you will no doubt end up with better air flow. The old will be matted with debris from air intake. I like to think there's access to change it underhood, but I can't verify it right now. We're taking ours on a trip and I can look at it while we're there. Or, I might be able to get you a clip from professional documentation.
