What I am looking for is the 5/8" heater hose part # GM60036-M-CA (that is tle # on the hose) or equivalent. Anyone have a source?

Looks like OP is in Canada, not sure what their options are there. Even still though you'd be better off trying to find some length of hose that was made in this decade vs an old NOS hose from the 80's/90's.

The hose is a molded. It is not a straight hose Check the picture. It has to rise around the tranny dipstick housing.
I tried regular autopart hose but not functioanl.
