Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hi Guys,

i have my York compressor to mount and the only place it can go is above the aircon compressor. However i need to re-route the rubber hose to go straight down the engine and meet the steel pipe there.
Question is can this pipe be bent? or what material would i make a new one out of? the rubber i will figure out it is just the metal one i need help with.

Get some Exhaust pipe then fit the rubber hose to the ends.

Won't exhaust pipe rust?

not if you have coolant in it and paint the outside

cheers matt
