I am swapping the engine in my 96 legacy, and as part of not wanting to take it apart again for a long time I want to replace all the fuel lines, but one of them which although it doesn't leak currently is extremely hard and brittle and is likely to crack easily, is no longer available and I am not sure there is anything available to replace it with.

 

The part number was 807506081, and its basically a 6mm ID 90 degree bend that rather than being like normal fuel line it appears to be more like vacuum hose as far as being stretchy but also fuel resistant.

 

I could probably go to the junkyard and get a whole intake manifold from a car that's 5 years newer with half the miles on it and hope the line is in better shape, but that seems stupid for a 3 inch rubber hose, but I'm not sure what else to do. I could leave it, but I am extremely paranoid about fuel systems being assembled exactly as they are supposed to be with everything in perfect shape so I wouldn't really feel good about doing that.
