The black hose pipe is sheathing for the electrical wires inside. I think it was considered quite the innovation 50 years ago when they installed it.

If there's no suitable transition ranch pipe to SCH40, that's why I didn't find any and glad I didn't call a well drillers. I figured they might want to replace the whole SCH40 line. It's been in the ground 30 years, no problems.
