Rep Power: 281 the picture is hard to make out but it looks like your fuel line and a vac hose that connects to the fuel rail. they should bout be about 1/4". If being replaced, the fuel line should be dedicated fuel hose, not just some Home Depot crap that will burst and set your car on fire. The vac hose isnt as big a deal, you can use regular hose for that which you can buy in lengths as Autozone or O'reilly auto parts.

Rep Power: 281 no, oil doesnt pass through external lines on this engine. Oil goes into the head, down to the block, pan and back swishing around nicely and lubricatingly lol. the only place oil will come out, if you remove a bolt/sensor, is the oil pan or the oil pressure sensor. unless im missing something, ah well, anyways it wouldnt pass through a rubber hose, that for sure.

Rep Power: 0 thx for the reply guys... i just look under the hood and look for the right hose(green arrow) and it says "fuel hose". OK my problem is this......
here's the pic:
When I installed an intake tube, i noticed that the hose(blue arrow/encircled) is sticking with the tube. I put some ceramic fiber to temporarily cover the hose, and underneath the ceramic fiber, on the tube, I put an aluminum foil tape(yellow arrow), to prevent the heat from the tube to transfer to the hose.
Now my question is, is it safe to change the hose(blue arrow/encircled) into a longer one?
Im planning to paint/chrome the tube sometime in the future. And i want to remove the ceramic fiber and aluminum foil that i installed.
Thx

Rep Power: 281 couldn't you have ran that line under the intake pipe instead of over, then you wouldnt have to do anything with it.
