losing anti-freeze

[solarys]

Help needed! I noticed it takes a while for me car to get warm inside.

So I checked the anti-freeze. The anti-freeze reservoir took almost a whole gallon of anti-freeze.

I also noticed that the hose near the reservoir had a green color on it, as if anti-freez leaked out of it. The leak was where the metal meets the hose.

Can some one tell me the name or part number for that hose? As always, thanks in advance.

Update: I was looking at a/c hose, which has nothing to do with anti-freeze. I will deal with that issue later. Right now, I have a anti-freeze leak, and just need to find it. Sorry for the bad post. Will look at replacing anti-freeze reservoir.

Please, please search and read some of the cooling system threads and the stickys. This is the number one or two LS problem. You don't need the hose. You need the degas bottle. You almost certainly also need the radiator hoses and the plastic cooling system parts at the front of the engine. They all fail within weeks of each other.
