Default Radiator Overflow Hose

Could anyone verify by looking closely at these photos and see if this is an original radiator overflow hose? Was removed from an OG coded radiator years ago but uncertain if it's real or repop. It does have three ribs along the entire length. Measures in at 21 1/2" long. It is 1/16" thick and has an inside diameter of 3/8" with and outside diameter of 1/2". Is there is anything else I should be looking for on the hose?

Thanks,
Sal

That's Good,I would say yours is an authentic original.
I've only seen repro with a raised 4th 180° seam so far.
