Joe,
I had a boat once with the filler at the stern and the tank in front of the
engine. The connection was by a long hose about the diameter of the short
hoses that connect the pipes together. You might try NAPA or a boat supply
house and see if they carry the hose. Then it's a cut and fit project. The
bend is gradual and the hose won't crimp. (It also won't collapse if you get
hit again.) If memory serves I bought hose at my local NAPA store.
The pipes show up on E-Bay occasionally.
