Which water line is it? Got a picture? If its something you can take off and I'm thinking its a metal water line, why not just have a shop weld it back up?

water*........ its maybe 6 inches long looks like an L when on the car. im jw if anyone knows if advanced, autozone, napa, carquest. or anywhere sell oem sr parts of should i just buy some universal high temp hose and cut it to the length

If its a rubber hose, just take it to autozone or whatever and see if they can find something that you can match it with. I usually asks if they can let me in the back start matching it with what they have. Find something that has a similar pattern on something that is longer and just trim it to fit yours. Thats what I usually do with large water lines under the manifold.

Also since you're under there, go ahead and replace ALL water lines. If one busts, the others arent that far behind.

Yes we he said, go in the back and look at the selection that is what i do always.
