Burst coolant pipe

Driving home today it starts pissing coolant around the jubilee clip by the thermostat housing. I want to get back on the road as soon as possible. It's an 8v that had the recall so this hose is only a foot long with jubilees either end. Where is the best place to get a replacement hose quickly and cheaply?

any chance of chopping the bad bit out and reconnecting it? or is hose to short for that? do you mean the hose under the alternator?

Just did that exact thing, it was the hose that goes onto the side of the head. All sorted now thanks, was hard to get a look at the hose when it was steaming everywhere.
