F-85 4-4-2

I need to replace the subject hose on my '65 Vista Cruiser. Is it a pre-formed hose, or can I just use a length of 3/8" power-steering hose?

The Gates part number is 352870, and AC Delco is 36-352870, but neither looks pre-formed. They do come with the fitting that attaches to the steering gear, which I don't need. Amazon link below for a visual.

I've always used a length of hose and worm clamps.

The good thing about the return line is it's not high pressure.

Power Steering dot com (formally Chips) will have the correct return line.
Fusick will/should have the pressure line(I think not sure on earlier Olds)

Then there is this...They should sell the return separately
