Kyle,
Can't help you with the official length, but you can make a passable hose

Good luck,
Clark

G'day folks, My <set:6971 6971 Intergalactic Command Base> just arrived from an eBay transaction. The 2 black rubber hoses on the top don't seem long enough. It looks as though somebody cut a single hose in two (ARRRGGG!!!). Would somebody please (...) (24 years ago, 13-May-01, to lugnet.space)
