Need help finding a lower radiator hose for a 36 chevy with a 350 1 3/4 hose
I'm thinking that may be a measure and eye ball application ?????
If you're looking for someone who's done exactly the same setup you have to pave your way you could looking for quite awhile.
I make a wire form "pattern" of what will do the job and then talk the guys at the parts house into turning me loose on the hose rack in back. It might take an hour or two to find the just right hose, or one that has the just right shape somewhere between the ends that need to be trimmed off. And don't forget to use the inside spring when you do install.
you can do an pretty easy mock up using plastic pvc pipe fittings
I prefer the flex hoses with the spring already installed. If there's only a bend or two, all you have to worry about is the correct length - give or take an inch or two - like the top hose in this photo.

Yeah, flex hose is pretty easy to use. Comes in several different lengths.
i used a wire for the curves an matched it at the parts store. Jonathan
