Hose Identification please

[J.M.P]

Hi, just recent days I have noticed my engine running hotter than usual, then just yesterday my engine starts to overheat, so I pull over and inspect it, it was smoking slighlty, not bad, but it was getting dark, so I waited for it to cool down, then drove it straight home. Then today I drove it, did the same thing, so I opened the hood, found where it is leaking from, I will post 2 pics, the hose is highlighted in blue.

MY question is what is the hose called, I have looked for diagrams found really nothing, and dont know much already to know enough. My other question is, is there anything else I should look for or replace while Im at it.

Thanks, here are the pics

FITV hose

here are some other pics maybe better, highlighted in yellow this time, I just want to make it clear for ya, fitv, is that the exact name i suppose, I dont know alot about it, so I just want to make sure

Also, is there anything else I should look to replace around that area, it was leaking antifreeze from it, or squirting when it was hottt, like a pinhole squirt from the fitv hose

FITV= fast idle thermo valve

nevermind i was thinking you were gonna replace the fitv also not just the hose but yeah if its leaking from the hose replace the hose

[J.M.P]

yea the hose is leaking, so Im going to replace that, but i guess it wont hurt to clean the fitv itself while im at it.
