The top hose was one of the biggest problems I had- I tried using the top hose from Vectra V6 but since the engine is so close to the slam panel, the hose was kinking like this

I was using a corsa rad from an air con model because it is the longest one of the corsa rads. The only problem was that it fitted at a big angle as shown in this pic

So I used a normal corsa sport rad which is shorter and made a top hose from silicon hose and 90 degree copper pipe. The black hose attached to it is part of the top hose from a Vectra V6. The lower hose on the rad is simple enough although mine is a bit more complicated because I have an external water pump
