If I remember correctly, 10 feet replaces everything including the piece
between the filter and the pump, and between the pump and the plastic line
that runs to the engine compartment. Most import FLAPS will have 7mm fuel
line and clamps to fit. to de-pressurize the fuel ring, you can disconnect
the electrical connections at the fuel pump and start the van, it won't run
long, even if it starts.

I use the fuel line with the braided cover on my VW's. I install some pieces
of 1/2" heat shrink tubing over the ends to keep the braid from fraying. I
use UV rated cable ties instead of hose clamps, two per connection. They
look better and are easier to remove when its time to change lines. I have
tried to pull off a hose fastened this way and found that the hose will tear
before this connection comes loose. Just my way of doing things, do so at
your own risk.
