We could give you a lot of inaccurate answers and maybe an accurate one ;-)

Just do a quick survey under the hood, even take snips of the ends of each
different sizes you see (should only be two or three sizes) and estimate the
total length of each size. The hose is sold by the foot, so you'll want to
do the "Price is Right" thing: buy at least enough, but try to go over by as
little as you feel confident about.
