If you're talking about the rubber hose, I recommend Vetus. Available from many suppliers.
I used a Lloyd's approved hose 1 year and It only lasted a season before the bend radius was causing it to fail. (The original hose which had been in place for over10yrs, possibly from new, coped with the same bend radius).
The vetus is now 3 yrs old and seems fine.
If not talking about the hose, you'll need to give us a bit more info.

As said, use Vetus and suitable reducer.

Worth a call?

Are silicone hoses suitable for exhausts?

I've no idea PCUK, but surely worth a phone call to ask? This from wiki
Yes, reinforced silicone hoses are suitable and often superior for certain exhaust applications, especially marine wet exhausts and some high-performance automotive uses, due to their excellent temperature resistance (up to 200°C+) and durability,

Unless money is really tight would reccomnend Vetus.
Lots of other budget "Lloyds Approved" hoses out there at less money, but the Vetus pipe is much more flexible in tight curves, does not need brute force to get it round obstructions without collapsing , especially when you are trying to get that hose through a tight space and then on over the exhaust outlet flange and get the exhaust clamp(s) done up.
Ebay worth checking for a good price.
Less of drama if the pipe does not need to bend en route. ?
It may be worth cutting the old hose with a grinder in short sections for ease of removal,
This will however ensure that you and every single nook and cranny in the engine compartment will be coated in fine layer of carbon dust which takes longer to sort than the hose fitting.
One word of warning, was advised by several experts that an exhaust hose needed changing simply due to age.
After going through all the above grief the visual deteriation on the outside of the pipe proved to be nothing vital and the integrity of the pipe was as good as new under the surface.
Still have a unused "Lloyds Approved" pipe hanging in ther garage.

I fitted a length of fabric reinforced silicone hose 100mm bore between exhaust elbow and my waterlock 4 years ago and is still perfect. Unless it is a straight run you will need the type that has a spiral wire reinforcing
