Before changing the hose I would think very carefully about the master and slave cylinders. If either of them is dodgy I would change them. The reason for that is the threads on the ends of the pipe. If you have the original cylinders the threads will be different, but you can merely replicate what you have on the old pipe.
But if you change the cylinders the new slave will certainly have a different thread so your new pipe wont fit!
But of course you might well not have original cylinders by now!
A very common thing to do with the S1 particularly is to change both to Landrover Defender Series 3 cylinders, which are then easy to replace or service.
If you do fit a flex you will have to decide where to support it, and make sure it connects to the bottom of the slave with the bleed on top! They have been found the other way round.
