The hoses would be a good idea that way you have a baseline on them. Take the time and money to also
replace the plastic coolant distributer behind the bulk head in
the right front corner of the engine area. I would also consider the plastic thermostat housing as these are failure
prone parts especially of original. Examine your expansion
tank with the low level sender and if it's yellowed replace it. 
This will leave you with a sound coolant system you won't 
have to worry about while on the road. Just be sure to do it
with plenty of time so you can get some shake down time 
under your belt. Drive the Westy to work,the grocery store,
pick the kids up from Grandma,etc...that way you can make
sure you have no drips and the coolant systems is bled. You want to avoid major work without having time to road test
the work. 
I noticed GoWesty is now selling replacement plastic hose
for the fuel lines from the tank to engine compartment. I usually replace it with rubber fuel line but the plastic tubing 
they offer is more oem.
