GM Discontinued Heater hose!!!

Just came back from GM Parts counter, they told me the question mark shaped hose going to heater core has been disco'd! I want to replace my hoses before they go bad. Does anybody know a workaround?(Without bypassing the heater core)

Which brand hose did you go with? Does it discolor over time? I think I'll be gong that route. If I have to change might as well make it look good and last long!

Auto-Zone carries the "stock" hoses. The one near my house was out, so I just had them cut me about 3 feet of the same diameter hose from the big rolls that they have, and it worked fine.
