Depending on how long you want to keep the car, you might want to consider taking the hose to an industrial hose and supply company and getting braided stainless lines made for the car.
I did this with the clutch feed line from the firewall to the top of the transmission housing for the slave cylinder. It will now likely outlast the rest of the car. It was also cheaper than Ford wanted for a replacement hose.
Given that I have a pinhole leak in one of my power steering hoses, it's just a matter of time until I do the same with both of them.
