I'm looking at the fuel hoses at:

MrCycles has similar choices.  I had some Helix hose, but I think it was PVC, which I had to replace (I can't use PVC, nor polyurethane for more than a year).

I can use Buna-N, Neoprene, Silicone,  Teflon, HDPE/polyethylene, and Viton (in about that order).  Neoprene is the easiest to find, but it's thick stuff, and a pain to work with at the tank fitting.  I used to see lots of Teflon/Viton on eBay, but not this year.

I'd try the local chain stores first. They usually have an assortment. I would have to read the material listing on the tube.

Industrial supply houses also might help with your quest.

Why can't you use PVC, etc? Allergies/medical reason?
