I hope so, your asking price is a bargain too!
Well, i tried a length of silicone hose and because its at a slight angle and it kinks the pipe. so after some searching i found one of the german sites (bar tek) i think do the ribbed one but its 80 euros. after more searching i found a length of silicone ribbed hose that looks fairly similar to original but was £50
with the original ones getting pretty old now they are perished from expanding contracting, hot/cold and constant oil contaminants. mines well worn out. give me a shout if you manage to find any decent ones that fit and aren't really expensive
also thanks for the info on the place that sells the little connectors
