For OEM I’d expect around £20 each. I have had one of these fail, but I suspect as a result of minor damage sustained during a head gasket change. The originals are heat-proof and quite tough.
Assuming your car has a/c and hence the plastic heater control valve under the distributor then also budget £40 - £50 for a new one of these. The chances of being able to remove the existing hoses from it and tighten up new ones without breaking the brittle plastic are quite slim.
