Question cooland hose burst...need some advice.

my hose comming out of the water pump into the heater core burst and they dont sell the indiviual hoses anymore. i went to advanced and they dont have it. then i went to the chevy dealership and thy said they only have the whole set up of the hose from the waterpump to the heater core and the hose from the throttle body to the heater core in one peice. would you recomend buying that for 140 or trying to strip one from a junk yard. i know its probly not a good idea to reuse hoses but i wanted to get a second opinion before i go spending 100 more than i need to.

thanks

Replace the whole thing with new. The other hoses are the same age and will be going next. IMHO, it's the only prudent thing to do.
