Tractor supply is one I hadn't thought of. The junkyard option didn't seem like a good one, since the hoses usually have factory bends and twists already in them. (I need a fairly long straight run.) Most power steering/transmission cooler lines are 3/8". One of the autoparts guys said fuel line hose would work for oil as well... It was just the water only line that would degrade rapidly.
