GM Water hose equivalent?

[Simoniz]

Does anyone please know the equivalent GM part for the large u shaped water hose which runs from the water pump to the thermostat housing aka distributor block on the Merc 3.0l engine OL 304659 serial No. The Merc part number is 32-96879.

Over here in Europe it seems to cost about ?35 which seems a lot when a normal auto hose is around a tenner.

Many Thanks...

There is no automotive equivalent than I'm aware of. In a car, there is no connection from the thermostat to the water pump.

Ayuh,... It's a Marine Only part,...
Any other application, it would be the Lower Radiator hose....
