Thanks! The price isn't bad, but I don't need the hose. I am going to try some 60mm hose that is closer to the original material.

@dr914@autoatlanta.com George can I get just the splitter? I just don't need the hose sitting on a shelf unused...

I had a WTB ad up to find the hose splitter, that resulted in getting directed to a thingiverse.com 3d printing .stl file of a stockish looking single hose adapter.
https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2301723 https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2290245

Using that as a starting point I added 2 60mm ports to it along with holes for the stock spring pins and I added clearance to the sides to look more like the original.
I also made 60mm adapters for the heat exchanger ends so I can used the aluminized stiffer hose that is available.

I'll probably add a support in the middle, but it stands up pretty well by itself.
