Splir Oil Cooler Hose - Fix/Replace Options? 700 1988

1989 B230FT Turbo Couple (780)

I've got a split in what I assume is the high-pressure Oil cooler hose. The split is located about midway, just in front of the main crank pulley.

I just got this car started and when it is idling, a fine spray of oil jets all over the engine.

The hose needs to be replaced, but I can't find anyone but the dealer selling it - even then, one of the two hoses is listed as N/A at Tasca.

This is the same setup as on any 700-series turbo, no idea why it would be N/A.

Knowing that a proper repair/replacement will be needed, are there any short-term/temporary fixes I can make so I can run the engine and diagnose the rough idle?
