One of my projects is having a few problems. First, the underhood heat is high 
enough to really dry
out my hoses, I've been having vacuum leak problems so have been replacing 
EVERYTHING that could
cause that.
Some of my vacuum hoses are less than two years old, yet today when I removed 
them they were so
brittle that they just broke off.
So, where is a good online source for some high temperature hose, preferably to 
as large as 3/4"?

And, are there any good online sources for metric hose? I need some 12mm and 
45mm. 1/2" is proving
just too big for the 12mm barbs.

While I'm at it, I need to change the hoses on my oil cooler. I have the choice 
of getting new hose
crimped on the old fittings (maybe), getting metric fittings that have barbs- 
then just using hose
and clamps, or using metric to -AN fittings- then using -AN hose, any opinion 
as to which I should
use?
