Default Throttle body water jacket heater HOSE size

I for the life of me cant find this and I even called the parts dept at my local LR dealer (they are really cool - they like us classic owners)

So yeah
1998 D1 V8 4.0 EFI AC auto 107k

the 2 hoses that run from the throttle body heater to the top two little ports on the rad...
anyone know what the inside diameter is on those?

thanks

This is the silicone heater hose I use, and it works spot on. Strong as hell and won't break down with coolant/heat. Remember to use hose clamps that are made for silicone hose (100% smooth on the inside). Good Luck!

.313" ID. = 5/16ths. Not confirming this is correct, just translating from the linked page.
