Upper coolant hose 1989 IROC

Can anyone help with this, please? I need to replace my upper coolant hose with the correct molded/shaped hose but the Gates listed replacement shows I need a 21675 hose, which is not the hose that is on the car. I have a completely original 1989 IROC 5.7 TPI. The coolant hose looks exactly like every other original 89 IROC I have seen, in that it comes off the radiator, turns sharply to the left (looking from the front), rests on a molded support on the fan shroud then turns 90 degrees and goes onto the water neck/thermostat housing between the alternator and throttle body air intake. I have checked all the listings of what my car is supposed to have but they either show the same Gates hose or an AC Delco hose which is the same as the Gates hose, and neither fit. The part numbers on the hose are no longer readable. Does anyone know the part number of the hose I need? Thanks in advance for any help.

i just bought that exact hose it comes with the ends a little longer so you can trim to fit the best. i got mine from summit and it fit great, just what i needed

its a goodyear hose. part # 61564

when you look up the part dont worry about the picture not looking the same the hose you get does not look like that....it looks just as you described it sharp off the rad.than across the metel brace by the alt.then turns into the water neck. some pictures in summit are just representations and not actual pictures of the part.... good luck

i beleive its about $13 pretty cheap

Any parts store should have it. My local Advance Auto parts has upper and lower. About $10 each.
