If one hose was rotted sufficiently to rip they're almost certainly _all_ rotten and ready to begin leaking & do you dirt .
Diesel hose is *special* so far only the German car partshaus and NAPA has ever had the correct stuff ,Pep Boys etc. sell similar crap but it'll soften up , swell & begin leaking fuel profusely in a few weeks , usually when you're far from home & wearing a nice shirt or have SWMBO in the car .
I always carry 1' of it in the map pocket .
Interestingly , the NAPA hose doesn't *look* right (no woven outer cover) but it's been on the car for a couple years now and never leaked a drop nor got hard nor blubbery.....
