I'm just curious, coming in rather late to this discussion...

How many answers came from those who do this sort of stuff for a living...with

The guy that works on my plane is an IA with about 20 years
experience and I'm a complete idiot with regard to this stuff. He has no better idea

just replace the hose because it's cheap and you don't really know.
