Rusk, it might be worth sharing some info, if known.

Origin of hoses. Where bought from, make and how old.

Coolant: What are you running? Water? Water/antifreeze(summer coolant). Water wetter? Odd non water stuff? (Evans)

I would imagine some new hoses and some flushing will get it back up and running. Good to document it as a warning to others though, even if it is impossible to say what has happened. The very fact that it has happened means others can be aware of it and look out for it.
