I took my little one that runs from radiator to the throttlebody off to match it up and went to auto parts and got the fuel line that size and 2 clamps. Fuel line is made for pressure and antifreeze isnt even close to as bad on rubber as gas.

Didn't cause any problems with my car. Had it like that for over 2 years now.
