Split rear washer pipe flooded car = mouldy car!

Hello! New here but need help. My daughter’s KA (2016) has a leak in the rear washer fluid where the pipe has split. 
Luckily we found the split and would like to repair it, but I’m unsure if the size. I bought two different size rigid pipes from Amazon but both seem too small. Any ideas? The tube is ridged and externally seems around 5mm but it’s tricky to measure! I haven’t cut the pipe yet as I don’t want more fluid leaking in the car! 
thanks, Nic

    Not really sure of the size but if you get yourself a pair of vernier callipers you'll be able to measure the inner and outer diameters and find a suitable replacement pipe
