If the hole is right next to the metal crimp fitting, you have an easy
fix. Cut the hose at the hole. Remove the crimp (cut with Dremel or
carefully with a hacksaw). Remove the old hose chunk, being careful not to
nick it with your utility knife. Stick the barbed end back into the hose
(tight fit), and put 2 hose clamps on it. Done. Looks like hillbilly
heaven, but it works. I have the same deal on mine, no leaks.
If you can remove the hose, take it to NAPA and they can put your old
hose fittngs into a new piece of hose. Pretty cheap, did that myself too.
If the metal fittings are OK, you can get a hose rebuilt at a variety of
places.
