You can replace with standard vacuum lines.  Go to any auto parts store and they will sell the stuff by the roll.  Washer pick up line works too.  Does not have to be fuel rated.

You can also go to ant hardware store and get suitable hose to work.

Search on the auction site for vinyl "pneumatic tubing" under industrial supply. That appears to be the same stuff they used for the OEM hard vacuum line, and just use some rubber vacuum line to replace the connectors.

Watch the temperature ranges on some of it, though.
