Default Coolant pipe to the back

hello,

i have a '13 SXT and my wife called me today with a coolant leak underneath and just to the rear of the passenger side. we got the van home and when i jacked it up, there was a rubber hose with a gash in it where the coolant was gushing from. Well i got the hose out and i am getting a replacement.

But i am wondering where these lines go. i traced them to the rear passenger side and they go up into the body just in front of the rear passenger side wheel well.

i have attached pictures of the hose before and after removal.

PS. can replace the hose clamps with screw type clamps?

Thanks

yes. It goes up to a heater core (small radiator) and a fan blower hot air for the back.
