Might try a water pump bypass hose from a chevy truck or look at Stainless Marine hose it is a fairly tight 90 deg bend.
My O'Rileys lets me hose shop in the back isles as long as it takes. Looks a lot better but you need to resolve those short hoses.

The connection you are trying to manufacture out of straight hose is supposed to be a molded hose. The straight hose will eventually get warm and kink. When it kinks you lose water flow and will burn up the exhaust.

EMI shows the U shaped connector hose in their installation guide. Looks like the fitting on the manifold may be a 45 with riser being straight.

I am actually trying to use the u shaped hose from emi . They are going to try and send me a 45 to use on the riser but I am thinking that then I will only have 1" space between the riser nipple and the manifold nipple . May present a different issue. We will see .

Be happy with fit and function on the hose and fittings that you are working on. It is critical to not restrict the flow.
