S bend on profiled tube

I am trying to model the S-bent tube from this drawing :
I tried to first define the bend path and made some profile along the way to connect with a loft function without success. I thinking it would be easier to first make the straight tube and then apply the bending but I don't know which feature to use. I tried with metal sheets but it doesn´t look like the right tool for this example.
Thanks in advance

You can guess at the inner profile, or like Puck mentioned, "abstract", ...but if that is the case, might as well use a simple Shell operation instead! The end result will be as good as any guess one would make.
@Puck To the OP...if that is not acceptable then further dimensional details must be obtained.
