Do you know if your sousa was made before or after 1985?  Parts are available for both but you'll need to identify it a little closer.  Before 1985 you'll need a lower mouthpipe for a King Model 2350.  After 1985 you'll need a lower mouthpipe for a Conn 14K.  It looks like the upper mouthpipe you have is probably off a Bundy...  or a long-shot may be a Martin.  Either way, if you change the lower mouthpipe you will probably need a new upper mouthpipe.
