Is that the hose to the lower radiator connection? If so, check in the FAQ section for "Check Valve Delete".

Do the check valve delete thing for the lower hose, for the upper hose, you should be able to take the connector off the radiator (with the special tool) and replace the o-rings inside it. Probably have to take one out, and then match it up at the parts store.

Would it be possible for me to remove upper and lower lines and just replace them with regular hose and hose clamps instead of the funky special connections ill be removi.g the check valve aswell and just running a strait hose between the hard line and radiator
