What's a good replacement for brittle plastic fuel lines

My boost line on the TD broke at the banjo. I suspect some of the other 35 yr old fuel lines are brittle and ready to go. What is a good, readily available material to replace them with? These cars are not going to be run of grease.

Belmetric .com has all the lines to make up. I used my drill press and brake
flare tool or they also have fittings to use rubber type hose.

I bought the hard plastic line on the intake from Keyes Mercedes. They have the best prices. It was inexpensive. They also have one of the hard plastic fuel line. It’s $12. Pelican has the other. It’s made by Cohline.
