Worked out great. A little longer than I needed, trimmed them to length I needed fits perfectly. Again thank you

I second Tom84FXST on the transmission hose. I used fuel injection clamps, Gates transmission hose, and a 90 degree brass fitting. The temperature and pressure ratings of transmission hose are far better than fuel or oil lines. I also slid a section of heater hose over the oil lines where they ran underneath the engine to protect them. Years of vibration had chafed them to the point that they wore through.
