What size hose?

Guys, what is the size (diameter) of the rubber hose that connects between the rinky-dink PS oil cooler loop and the return spigot on the PS pump's reservoir? The one held on with simple hose clamps. Car is an 88 IROC.

Also, what is everyone's favorite PS fluid to use on these cars? Synpower? Maxlife?

Thanks.

3/8".

Any. I'm not real picky. Not ATF though.

Thanks. Yeppers, no ATF. I'm thinking of a mix of Valvoline Maxlife and Synpower. Gotta flush it first though. Maybe run some cheap stuff thru it first to get rid of the old crap. I can get that at Wally's.
