Stainless braided. I bought a roll of Russell brand and used that. I would not use fuel line for oil. They are not all compatible and some will turn to mush from the oil. Oil line is cheap enough and available anywhere.

If you choose R-10 (submersible, gasoline rated,) neoprene, you won't have to worry about the lines deteriorating (but the stuff is pricey, like $10 / foot if I recall.) Available at NAPA.

Thankfully in the modern aviation world it has gone the way of the dodo bird. There is no advantage in using it on a motorcycle.

turn the spigots outward if they aren't already so they aren't cramped against the transmission and they may show a mild kink when new but will soften up with use.
