B&M Transmission cooler

I’m having trouble finding the right inlet and outlet hoses that I can tap into with my transmission cooler. Does anyone know which hoses are best for this application? Please and thank you

Right or wrong, here's what I did. my cooler came with about 2.5ft of 3/8" hose. I connected it to the cooler in a loop, placed the cooler where I wanted it and fed the loop through the bulkhead. I found the spot in the loop to cut so that both lines would reach without kinking and made the cut. I removed the original line that linked the two pipes shown connected with new hose, reused the hose clamps and installed in no particular order (just adding in series with factory cooler, flow direction doesn't matter). here's how it looks directly below where the battery normally sits.
