Took the fuel line off my truck and found a pin hole in it after cleaning it up. As an alternative to purchasing steel line, a pipe bender and a flare tool, I was thinking of using flexible hose.  Has anyone used PTFE Teflon fuel line with -an fittings?  Something like this from amazon - Autobahn88 Stainless Steel Braided PTFE Teflon Fuel Oil Gasoline Brake Line Hose, 10feet, -6AN, Silver.

Buy a premade length of the PVC coated line. You can bend it pretty easily by hand and it will come preflared. Worst case you might need 2 with a union.

I just finished upgrading my 47 with an entire fuel system. I used Nicopp from a fuel pressure regulator mounted on the front of my  battery box to a fuel block on my firewall. It took only 4 linear feet of Nicopp line, hand bent and 2 factory flares to complete. It will require more length to get to a stock fuel pump. My original line went forward of the engine, crossed the radiator, and back to the pump.
