Default Ford engine tape
What brand of tape does Ford use to wrap their wires in the engine compartment? It looks like a cloth type of material

This is what was supplied with several electrical recalls for dealerships, and it's the closest I've found to factory harness tape:

Tesa tape is OE for many European automakers inside the cabin, but not Ford outside the cabin.

Home Depot sells 3m Friction Tape for $3 3/4" by 20' roll. Used this for many years on the job. Gets sticky...
