Danial,
Originality is my field. The gentleman below is correct as far as he goes. The
OD of the rubber section of the oil capilary tubing is 3/8" - 1/2". However,
the ID is really small (1/16" - 1/8"). Mine was shot and I couldn't find a new
source. I found a piece on an old engine in a junk yard. FYI you will also
need little hose clamps. The OEM is a band clamp but it is the pinch type (not
the banjo style).
Good luck, Herb
