Default Fuel hose.

Recently changed the fuel filter on the Scoob and noticed the fuel hoses are looking a bit past their best so want to replace the flexible fuel lines to and from the filter, does anyone know the internal and external dimensions and know of a good online supplier? Not intending to run ethanol or anything so just want some normal stuff.

Ended up using 7.6mm fuel injection hose from Halfords, not sure what it is about Bosch fuel filters but the inlet port on it is a smidge bigger than the outlet and was struggling to get the old hose up to the swage line, new stuff seems good and no leaks.
