Default Heater Hose Question

1990 L98 w/ oil cooler. I am in the process of replacing a leaky water pump, and I wanted to replace the heater hoses. The hose that runs from the expansion tank to the wp seems to have a really large (1") size coming out, but then goes down to 3/4" were it splits to run to the oil cooler. I can see that this is a formed hose, but is it still available? If not, what did you use to replace it? I thought I could just use 3/4", because thats what "tee" fitting is. any ideas/suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Damm, wrong section, this should be the Tech section.

It has been three years but I got a set of those hoses for my 85 from my local dealer. I suggest you try there.
