13mm or half inch coolant hose with a 90° bend in it
I need a length of 1/2" or 13mm coolant hose with a 90° bend at one end and total length about 250mm. The standard kit car way would be to buy
a bend and a straight plus a joiner and 2 hose clips but as it will be on display I want it to look nice. I am happy to cut it out of a larger hose
from a production car but you can't search on eBay unless you know the make and model of car to donate it.
Do any of you fine car tinkerers have or know of a hose that will fit my requirements?

No, because they're all 100mm long and I need 250. I've already scanned eBay.

what exactly you mean by total length?
length of each arm to be 250 mm or length of both arms to be 250 mm?
if the latter,
see here each arm is 150 mm so total length I calculate as 300 mm.
re-read your post - you are after an unequal length arm 90 deg bend - with the longest arm 250 mm? can't help ya there, 150 mm is the best I
found, as above ^^
could trying bending a piece of aluminium tubing or use copper fitting.
