plastic fuel pipe between hif6 carbs

With HIF6 carbs the pipe is one piece from the top of the filter to the first carb and then on to the second, and all the fittings are moulded in.

I believe all the Rover plastic fuel pipes of the era are made from Black Nylon 12 (PA12) semi rigid pipe which is assembled with zinc coated steel connectors . I have made new ones up to put a fuel filter on my 2200TC . They were then heated and moulded to shape for the correct curve but this can be done on a DIY basis if necessary .
 
Pic is of the old one - I accidentally broke it..... (hope the pic showed up - I had trouble posting it)..... hope you have something like it - and I thank you for your help.....
 
If you can get any PA12 hose you could replace with that. The end just need warming in boiling water to push onto the steel fittings, or as suggested use flexible "rubber" hose and clips.
 
I like to keep things original if at all possible, but it looks like I'm gonna have to rig something up in this case. Thanks to you all for the suggestions....
