You want high pressure 7mm x 3 fuel injection hose. I used 5/16 when I replaced my fuel filter, but only out of convenience since I had some handy. If I were going to re-plumb the whole system I'd use the proper metric line. Get good quality too -- I've had cheap fuel hose crack and start leaking after only a couple of years. And use good clamps.
