Need help finding part numbers
 
Ok, so I found that my radiator fluid leak wasn't from the pulley but I have 2 blown hoses that I cannot find the part numbers for.

One hose is the big one that goes from the top of the radiator to the bleeder screw and the hose is a little one that goes from a small nipple on the bottom of the fluid tank to the pass side of the radiator.

What are the part numbers for these parts? and about how much are they?

Just get generic Earl's hoses from your local auto parts store (you know, the one with all the beat-up Camaros and riced-out Civics being worked on in the lot), and cut/clamp to fit. $20 and a saturday afternoon and you're done.

i got the big one from napa some time back for about $14.
they might have both.

I'm just gonna get them from work on Tuesday, until then I temp patched them up with that self fusing tape covered by emergency hose tape

Get the correctly formed hoses. This is not a camero or firebird.

However I think you broke the nipple for the small top vent nose and just think the large hose is bad.

Yep, your local FLAPS should be able to get them for pretty cheap.

funny story, true story, I took my car to a place to get the coolant system flushed. I told them specifically to call my cell if they ran into anything strange or wrong. I planned to pick the car up at 5:00 that afternoon, after work, which was 2 blocks away. So, I walk down there about 5:00 and Juan informs me that they had to order a new lower radiator hose, as the old one was swollen and they didn't want to risk sending me on my way with it like that.

Long story short, I had a brand new lower radiator hose sitting in a NAPA bag behind the seat. Instead, they wasted an entire day becuase they didn't follow my instructions.

I can see exactly where the hose is ripped. I took it off when replacing my fan switch and didn't put it on all the way and it rubbed against one of the pulleys and sliced right open. Lesson learned: Never work on your car when you are in a hurry.
