Take a stiff wire such as a coathanger and bend it carefully and accurately to simulate the path needed for a formed hose. Take it to a good parts house and begin your search. It will probably be necessary to use more than one hose for upper and for lower hoses. If so use a short piece of stainless or aluminum tubing to connect pieces and form the desired shape(s). Try to avoid the flex hoses.

Hose, House, it's all the same.....they hose you
