I would say it is the metal pipe . If it was the hose , it should say "flexible hose " . All the years I tested cars , I always defined exactly what part failed .To be sure , contact MOT test station for verification .If it is pipe , you can get a copper pipe made to sample at most accessory shops while you wait . Sometimes flexy hose can look o.k until pressure put on then it can bulge .
