Hose/Pipe help

Hello.... The pipe between the header tank and the expansion tank is missing, anyone know what size it is and where I can get it, also there are two thin metal springing pipes that I think have something to do with the heating as they attach to the exhaust, what are they and where can I get them from?
Thanks

You're clearly very new to these engines. 8mm rubber-type fuel hose will be fine for header/expansion pipe. The springy pipe is usually the one that goes to heat exchanger around exhaust pipe underneath on right hand side and is a kind of pre-heat in extreme temperatures. Its not strictly needed in the UK although no harm to reinstate. GSF should have it.

Fuel hose? for coolant?

For coolant you need EPDM.
