The wrapped ones look quite authentic?

I had a set made for the 997 a few years ago they were very good ..But took a long time to deliver perhaps that is all fixed by now.

Looking at pictures in the Mechanical Service Parts List for Austin & Morris Mini-Cooper and Cooper S book they seem to be old style wrap, these are a good product that we have used many times on other classics other than Min's

Re: UK made silicone hoses for classic, retro and sports cars
Last year I visited the Professional Motorsport World exhibition in Cologne where there was a stand of a firm called Leyland Silicone Hoses. Obviously this firm came out of the Leyland Bus Parts Ltd and wears the exact logo of Leyland trucks. So at least some connections with the old Leyland company.
