#Edit - ignore what I said. It was wrong so I've deleted it.

My "standard" car bleed kit works fine but I have to push it onto the nut below the nipple to get it to fit and seal. It's flexi hose is 6x8.

So - in conclusion. I dont know. Soz.

Not keen on using silicone tube with mineral fluid, seems to work fine with DOT, but mineral seems to lubricate it and cause it to keep slipping off the bleed nipple. Try windscreen washer tubing.
