Default PCV Coolant pipe

Hello folks, I'm needing to service my PCV flame trap box for the second time. The car is going to have about a hundred and seventy thousand miles on it. Should I replace the PCV coolant pipe this time around?

You can replace just the nipple part of that pipe, much cheaper than the pipe itself and it's the only problem area on the whole thing. You just need to grab it from another car, the only difference is the tube is a little longer, but it actually makes it easier to reinstall. Also make sure you replace the banjo bolt and washers that go with it.

Edit: Make sure to get some hose clamps too!

My concern are those hoses drying up and cracking at that high mileage.
