I ordered a 22" US Radiator with Triple Flow. This means they move the radiator inlet all the way to the passenger side of the radiator. Does anyone know what upper radiator hose will work with this application for a small block 360, 68 Barracuda?

Not sure if it makes a difference but with or w/o air conditioning and that looks like a big block rad.? I could be wrong.

The outlet (bottom) of your radiator is going to be on the wrong side for a 360, also. Unless you plan to use early (pre '70) timing cover and water pump.
 
If I were you, I'd use the old trick of bending a coat hanger or welding rod to the general shape and length that you need, and take that to your local parts house and see what they have that will work. There's usually a couple that come close, keep and use the best fitting one and return the rest. Make note of the number for future reference.

This is likely what I'll have to do. I'm hoping someone has been down this road and has a part number though. Thanks for the suggestion!
 
A Continental 60664 or a 60621 would probably work. Look at the pictures on Rockauto to see if they might work. They are big block hoses for B and E bodies. I have a 60664 on my 69 Coronet R/T with the 22 inch radiator.
 
O'Reilly has pictures of the Gates hoses - and a 360 degree rotatable view in 3D now. It's really handy in picking between a few different hoses.
