Cossie Hoses Needed

Hi All, it's been a while. Unfortunately, whilst taking care of Mr. Nunns' black Cossie (The Beast) the car burst a hose! It's the one that goes through the head (the left hand bank). It looks like a cut!  
 

 
(grrrr what am I doing wrong here? I've always got it to work in the past!  Click on it, you should be able to see what I'm on about)
 
While I'm at it, I might as well replace all 3 hoses. The photo shows the 3 hoses I would like to replace. Can anyone advise me if these are still available, part numbers and best source would be great.
Thanks,
Graham
 
(I'll post about my own car shortly, when I get a minute. It ain't good news unfortunately)

Graham. I see you are using Photobucket. I can see your photo but I guess it is to do with the recent changes they made where you now have to pay to host on an external site. Many of the photos that were posted here have been lost because of that policy.
I'm sure you'll get an answer to your question re hoses but I suspect it may be a case of having them made up, possibly in silicone.

Agree with Simmo re silicone hoses - you might have to use a selection of elbows, connectors & straight pipe as I don't think hoses are available off the shelf for this engine.
Take a look at the Samco website http://samcosport.com/ to see what they offer.
Ebay is another good source for silicone hose parts.
Will not be cheap but should last as long as the car.

Hi Graham. I've just seen the pic you sent. Here is a Co. I used before: I strongly recommend "Top Boss" performance engineering Tel. 01332 347401. They made, 2 Coolant hoses for my 24 valve Cossie Estate, great service and keen to help.  If I remember correctly they know Scorpios.. I will be in touch.   Smiley

Thanks All. Mike N, we'll chat later! Top Boss might want advertising space under the Beast's (or is it Tuppence again!) bonnet!
