Found a ripped tube last night on my outboard. Previous owner put a ziptie on her and she worked for the sea trial and for 4 hours on her maiden voyage before the fuel/water separator started leaking . Found the part (tubing kit) and part number (827694 1). I can’t find it anywhere locally or online for less than $50. For 3 thin plastic hoses this seems extreme.
If I go to a local auto parts store and find tubing (fuel rated/EFI rated) will there be an issue? I understand boat parts are different so I thought I’d pose the question before I made local news.
Here’s a link to what I need:

The hose should have a USCG rating of Type A1 or A2, it will usually have a red stripe on it. What size hose is it? Give me the diameter and length. I might have enough scrap around to piece that together. If so I’ll send it to you and say Merry Christmas

Cracker/Hairball, thanks for the info. I should have picked a less explosive hobby.
Cracker, I’ll send you the measurements tonight! Thanks.
