Hooer venting
James, Chris is actually right although Hoover did have a weird arrangement regarding their venting.
Matchbox dryers had a round vent outlet which allowed a drain pipe (drainpipe as in like the ones on houses) like fitting to connect the hose to the back but when they changed the design to eradicate the seperate fan and belt system they what you see on the back of your machine.
Im not sure if Hoover provided thehose and it has been damaged therefore none with yours or whether it was an optional extra.
Either way the vent hose was round and was pulled over the rectangle end and usually taped to seal it. Hotpoint had a similar arrangement too albeit eliptical in shape.
Hoover usually had 2 seperate rectangle ends that slotted together alloowing the hose to be removed from themachine without taking the plastic cone off the back too.
