I cleaned my hard brake and fuel lines and they appear to be in good condition. 
However since I am in the middle of a complete restoration should I replace 
them anyway? I believe they are original but have never had  any problems with 
the brakes.

Complicating this is that I do not have a pipe bender and I am scared of 
crimping them when bending by hand.
Where or what part numbers are the pipe retaining clips?


Also it appears that the original owner cut and crimped the return line from 
the expansion tank. Is there a reason for this and can I do it better? What did 
you do about this since I no longer have the charcoal canister.
Thanks in advance,
Ryan
