Coolant Hoses - the little ones

Since I'm replacing the radiator, upper and lower hoses and the thermostat...might it be a good idea to replace the smaller hoses in the system?

There are some around the oil cooler, the top of the engine on the steel lines, and down at the tranny cooler exchanger (and to those look fun!!!).

Does anyone have the P/N's for them? They appear to be the same...and two types. Straights and 90's.

Is this a Cummins only thing or Napa too?

With the alternator off and everything else...I have good access. I just hope I put the new hose clamps with some orientation that I can get to later if I need to re-tighten. Gotta remember to do that
