Default Silicone hose for exhaust

I have been searching for some silicone hose 5/8" (.625" ) OD with a nomial 1/2" ID. without any success. Minimum useable length 5"
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
It would be similar to Aerotrend Ultrablue 1/2" ID but smaller.
Thanks

The auto hose I found ,Google, had plys or fiber cords and I just discounted them, not sure why. I'll check that avenue.

This might work for you also, Not silicone but what most people use to couple headers with and works well, Look close to bottom of page.

Edit
25mm is close to 1/2"

25mm is close to an inch, 13mm is almost exactly a half inch...

I've had good success using automotive heater hose for glow engines and the Dubro large exhaust extensions for gas. Somebody retails a gooseneck aluminum tubing for your needs but I can't remember who it is at this time.
