If you type "NICOPP fuel line" into Google Search you will see who handles it in your area. It is a little more expensive but worth it as far as I'm concerned......

yep. thats the stuff you want to use (nicopp) unless you go with a flex braided hose with AN fittings.
the nicopp bends easy.. simple bubble flare where rubber if any attaches.
