Hi mate,
Just recently done this!!
Assuming its the same size as my RB320 (which im 99.9% sure it is!!) then I reckon you will need a 38mm hose adaptor. I installed Samco's on the car a few weeks back and (for some reason I cant remember) bought a 35mm Samco alloy hose adaptor .... it was too small, and didnt offer as tight a fit as I wanted .... so I had to order a 38mm diameter one, which gives a nice tight fit!!

Just checked the standard hose that I took off the car .... its definitely 38mm? 
Either way, I would always lean towards a bigger diameter adaptor, as you dont want to rely on just the hose clip to seal the hose!!
I see you're just up the road from me .... im in Larky!!
