1979 Mustang 17 302 4v w/ Commander exhaust manifolds.

So just a real quick question. There are 4 hoses, all 3/4 inch ID on my exhaust manifolds and they're getting a little old and need to be replaced. Where I'm at there is no boat specific parts store so I'm limited to the auto parts store or online ordering. Does this 3/4 inch hose need to be high temp and high pressure? Does it actually carry much pressure (can I use heater core hose?)? What came off it was a Goodyear Horizon 200 hose and I can't find that anywhere near me. Just looking for some suggestions on what to put back on.

Thank you.

Aaron,
You're good to go at the auto supply. Just normal heater hose works. The pressure is minimal and typically only about 4 PSI

I used high-temp hose from the hardware store...worked fine so far! Just moving hot water from point A to point B.
