Default Sea Strainer question Bravo Hose size?

Need to install a sea strainer and need advice (help) as I am out of town working. What size is the hose coming from the drive to the sea water pump? 2000 year 502 MPI-Bravo 1
When choosing a strainer, what size inlets should I look for? I know the fitting will need to match hose size but don't want to restrict water flow. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks, Mike

I've only seen 1 1/4" on most everything.

Most sea strainers that don't have a fixed slip/barbed fitting will all for the most part have 1" or 1 1/4" npt.

Thanks gang! The hose size was my first concern to get the proper fittings when I order.
