I use # 16 braided on my Lightning header, I don't remember the size but I did have to neck it down to fit.

It's not high pressure, even merc uses covers for thiers. You'll have to use a cover style hose clamp end anyway. Either use covers, or weld in an S/S JIC fitting, or weld a bung to tap and use a NPT to JIC fitting on the header.
Just my $0.02.
