Default New quick drain valve

Howdy guys and girls. I changed my oil over the weekend and installed a quick drain valve (this one). I have a question for those who are using this valve: What size hose do you use over the nipple? It looks like 1/2" fuel line would fit. What is best?

Also, I took some samples of the used oil for analysis that I will mail today. I will share the results as soon as I can.

I haven't used a hose on mine or need to yet, so I can't help, I just drain into a drain pan

Yeah, I've got one but i honestly can't remember what size hose it is. I had a piece laying around that fit. I wanna say either3/8" or 1/2"

Sorry ...
