Question Small leak in one of the cooling hoses....

Went to install my Inje intake today, and to my surprise, saw a small drip coming from the hose that is directly underneath the cooling cap refill. There are two larger hoses, specifically going to the radiator, then there is one right in the middle that goes back towards the engine. That is the hose that has a small leak.

Anyone know the part number or name for this hose...I'm going to replace it asap.

Also, a bleeding valve available to bleed the entire system for any air?

TIA

I have exactly the same issue with my car. Would it be safe to say that this is a design/defect issue??

Ghost ES3, how difficult is it to replace?
