'91 3.0 v6 pickup
this hose is bulging and had to be tightened down yesterday after it was leaking.
I need to replace but seem can't find the part (heater hose?) online that matches these curves except for the HPS silicone one. Is it no longer available in rubber?
I know very little about this stuff so please be kind!

Be very careful when you go to replace it I was trying to take mine off in one piece because I did the 5vz swap and I needed to figure out which hose I wanted to use and I ended smashing the heater core tube a little and I couldn’t get the hose to seal for a while. I recommend just slicing the middle of the hose with a knife

Very good advice. Be VERY careful removing the hose from the heater core. They are very brittle at this age. You don't want to be pulling the dash because of a little screw up.
i'm also looking for that heater hose for my 90 4runner with the 3vze engine, but that 87245-35040 heater hose is for the 1992-1995 models with the 3vze. that hose is shorter and different compared to the 90-91 models. does anyone know the part number to the 90-91 heater hose? i can't find it as well.
