Unhappy Heater Core Hoses

I have A/C so it was the center hose out of the 3 back there
(is that inlet hose or outlet) anyway thank god i was only 2 mi.
from home .look like I blew the motor (very embarrassing)guess it's time to get my knukles cut .funny thing is i am going to replace all the hoses's back there ,and no one had them in stock
must be a run on them (time of year i guess) so if any body has any tips let me no .looks pretty cut and dry ,thank the lord for my small hands hehe the kicker is the motor is pristine ,now it's got antifreeze all over it thanks Michael

Please let me know if and when you find replacement hoses MOC. All three of my hoses twisted when I was removing them from the heater core. When they twisted, the metal was so old and weak that they broke off. Now I need a new heater core and hoses.

That's a nice looking engine. Very clean. What do you use to clean it? and how do you get all of the black hoses to look so shiny? Everything I have tried doesn't work very well.

If you look at those hoses, they do screw into the heater core. It's just that when I tried to unscrew mine, the metal twisted and broke off.
