Thumbs up Top radiator hose for FBT

Hi all,
I’m chasing a top radiator hose for my FBT.
Does anyone know where I might get one?
Standard places don’t seem to have them.
Any info would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers Fi

I think they were genuine only, and are NLA.
AU top hose can be made to fit I think.

Edit: Looks like Mackay now make one.

What's a "FBT"? As a FCPA I think Fringe Benefit Tax but they don't have radiator hoses.

Fairlane by Tickford.

And isn't it just a standard EL V8 hose?

We did get a standard hose but the engine covers won’t go back on
