Isuzu heater

[County3.9]

What pipes fit a isuzu engine/ defender heater set-up. I've just fitted a defender heater in to an isuzu county. The pipes on the engine and the heater are a different dia. Winter is coming...:o

The Isuzu pipes on mine take 5/8" ID hose.

I have a defender heater in my 110. The heater end was 19mm from memory. I changed the brass outlets bits on the motor to match the heater. I got the bits from a hose place.

The problem I think is going from the pipes (that run along the side) to the heater. Maybe it wont be a problem, just thought I'd ask what others have done.

I used heater hose rather than steel pipe. It now runs along the edge of the guard instead of along the top of the exhaust manifold.

I can push the 16mm hose over the 19mm ends of the heater. I've decided to go with this. The hose seems to go on without too much effort, just use a bit of spit for lube. Has anyone seen a bad ending doing this before.
