I just replaced this and thought I would comment. You don’t necessarily need to replace the two rubber hoses, but you do need to inspect them good. I first look at them though the access hole and thought they were fine. Here is the smaller hose from the angle I could see through the hole.

Looks fine, right? Here’s the back side of that same hose. I did not use much force to straiten it. The cracks were already there.

Needless to say I found it during the leak check.
