I believe it's just standard automotive gasoline hose. You can get it
at any auto parts store.

The fuel line is usually Goodyear auto fuel line, non fuel injected type.

My 701 was flying (3 hours) when I bought it and it had fuel injector hose on it. I added a electric pump and put on regular gas line . NOT a good move on my part! 18 months later the gas line was starting to crack on the outside. Removed the old and put on the new fuel injector hose. My friend with a Rans S7 changes his regular gas line every 2 years. When he saw mine he changed his to fuel injector line also. I wish I could look on the line to see what the spec's were but I think it was about 50psi. I am in Wisconsin for a bit and my Stol 701SP (with VG's) amphibian 912s is in Florida.

For what it's worth: I used Goodyear fuel injection hose (very expensive it turns out), but what I liked about it is it has a high tech core which is supposed to be resistant to auto fuels with the solvents and alcohols. I assume (and hope) it's okay for 100LL also as I will probably have it in the fuel system from time to time on longer cross country flights. The hose seems more rugged and less likely to kink, probably because it's rated for the higher pressures of injected applications. I think the stuff I am using is this: http://www.goodyearbeltsandhose.com/cars/inject.html
By the way I have an Andair mini gascolator, and although the primary (larger) o-ring is supposedly nitrile (which I thought was really tolerant stuff), it has shown to be swelling oversize, and I already replaced it. Guessing thanks to the premium gas here in CT/MA/RI all being 10% ethanol blend.
