Water Pump > Manifold pipe diameter?

As above really!
I've got an RV8 from a Range Rover / P6 / MGV8 (I call it 'composite' :lol: )
One of the 2 pipes at the front that run from the water pump to the inlet manifold has a pin hole in it - but the amount of water it can shift when up to pressure is surprising :shock:
As there 2 hoses were never replaced when I built the engine, I don't actually know what the ID of the rubber is?
I'm looking to replace them with silicone hoses, and 16mm springs to mind?

Cheers
Tom.
