HI Stefan.
I have some hoses for the diesel which fit to the header tank so I'm presuming they are the same size, that is the only comparison i have.

This is the T joint i used for my FBH radiator mod in my shed.

This is the hose i have and a straight joint attached to it.

Upon measuring the joint and the ID of the hose my guess it's 20mm

You can see it fits into another hose of the same size.
