Get a hump hose coupler from them. They're a nice piece.

I used a 4 in silicone hose straight and then just eyeballed the right angle at the lid and tb and cut it with a razor blade till it fit just right it worked great

I can't seem to find a hump hose longer then 4" that's the piece I'd like to get. An I also considered the straight piece, I was worried about having a ugly crimp in it because it was getting bent.
