What's this hose?

[Excitable Kid]

I searched the forum. I couldn't find what I was looking for. The hose is near the upper cooling hose and connects to the stock air intake hose. That hose cracked open and sprayed coolant everywhere when I was driving. Car nearly overheated. Needle close to the red H. Sorry for small, s***ty pics.

Yes, I know it's dirty.

just a coolant hose that connects to where the upper radiator hose connects to the head. nothing special about it. i took my stock piece and just replaced it with a regular hose

make sure you check that the radiator doesnt leak after you replace that hose and add antifreeze

Thanks for the info. I can't remove hose clamp near where it goes to the head. It's at an angle where I can't put the pliers on to squeeze the the two points on the clamp. I removed the heater hose and the upper radiator have more working room. How did you remove it?

Thanks for the advice. It's a new radiator I put in 2 weeks ago. Refilled and bled the air out. It's just one of the cooling hoses bursted 7 miles in the drive.

Hate to raise the dead, but this exact hose I'm looking to replace to get rid of the aluminium tubing. So I'm lookin to just get a piece of longer hose. But I'm curious if anyone knows the size? O'Reillys has 3/4 1/2 and 5/8 but all those look too big, so I'm thinking it's more like 3/8. Thoughts? Still got some searching to do. Just found this first.

Found the size of the hose. It's 5/16 for anyone else who's looking for the actual size
