Imagine a cooling line the same diameter as the stub that is SPOT WELDED! (aaargh) running inside a fat rubber hose full of oil vapor. I guess they were terrified that the oil vapors would freeze into sludge or goo, and ran a hot water line through there. Originally I didn't want to buy the URO hose either, and was going to separate the cooling line out until I saw that damn weld. Standard 5/8 PCV hose is $3 a foot. But I threaded the cooling line into the hose in like six minutes.
RTV is verboten on PCV hoses in California; investigate whether you can get away with it in Jersey. Another choice is to visit Lowes and buy a small piece of ABS tubing with the right ID for the metal flute , and just ABS cement on a new sleeve. Good luck.
