Here are some notes on making those hoses:

engine rear to oil cooler lower, 29" long, right angles on both ends.

engine front to oil cooler upper, 22" long, 45 degree at engine, 150 degree
at oil cooler.

You need 3 10mm to AN-10 adaptors, engine rear and two oil cooler ports, 1
8mm to AN-10 for the engine front.

I don't remember the exact cost, maybe around $150. I think the pair of
Mazda hoses are well over $300.

So repairing the old Mazda stock steel tubing with their steel metric banjo fittings 
would be much cheaper as all you need are a couple of feet of new AN SS -10 hose.
Maybe ten dollars worth.
