Check Goodyear, they have them for a lot of GM cars.
I have them (OEM ones) for my 94 Fleetwood from a 9C1 cop car.

You might see what bends are needed and see what OEM Silicone offerings exist.
IMPORTANT: You cannot use spring loaded hose clamps, you MUST use specific clamps (band). Silicone hoses cannot tolerate rubbing on something, they are fragile to abuse, but if treated well, last a few lifetimes.
The 9C1 (cop car) and 9C6 (taxi) Chevy Caprice came with silicone hoes factory, with correct clamps. You can find out what those look like (I can look at my Fleetwood and my 2GS4) and see what I matches up. But I can't help on a 2GS3.

I am thinking of having some high temp silicone hoses made for our cars. I have looked at the hoses for the IS300 and Supra since our GS300 have the same motors but the hoses do not look like they would work on our GS. If any one has used any other hoses on their GS let me know what worked for you..
