Well, to be honest, the one I lost had nothing to do with a rubber line. It was the stripped inlet threads on the stock Quadrajet with metal line. What it did for me though, was to make me very careful about fuel delivery in the engine compartment...and rubber is an unnecessary risk.
If you ever change to the stock carb, you can get the exact metal fuel line from PY. If you keep the carb you have, it can be made just as you mentioned.
