well which one is it the one on the bottom or top? since i think the one from the top you can use a b18's or in worst case scenario undo the hose and measure by laying it in place and making some adjustments i.e. cut the thing to fit....

You can use one off a B18 as most of them are a generic size as far as I know of.
It will either be the inbound or outbound heater core hose which circulates coolant through it.

i will order the bseries hoses, but does it matter if its pinched, looking at the firewall its the one on the right.

right on mine, which is a right hand drive vehicle is the inlet, it should have a plastic black looking valve on there which controls hot coolant entering the system. i'll try getting you a pic of mine so you know where the hoses connect up to
