Rusty sells it for about $15.
My records show it's part number 900-271-042012
and is applicable for OM616 and OM617 engines with new style,
vertical thermostat, with bypass and "snowman" seal.

I once used a piece cut out of a spare Chevy pickup upper
radiator hose. Didn't fit "right" - but it worked for months.
Measurements from my parts bin.
New hose:
ID - 40 mm (1.57 inch)
OD - 53 mm (2.08 inch)
hose length, new: 70 mm (2.75 inch)
hose length, removed from service: 45 mm (1.77 inch)
