try those carrosel things that are found in motor trade/ car accessory shops. you know, the little packets that have 4 electrical crimps for ?3.50 and other bargins like that. i have seen packaged T pieces like that in there.

dont think so. the hoses with that ID run from the top of the radiator to the expansion tank. no T pieces.
the 1l hoses are moulded.

if all else fails, try a garden centre that does pond stuff or a good hydraulic shop
