Its 1/4 bore standard and jubilee clips are no good they dont do up circular on small O/D applications, you need proper fuel pipe clips, not sure from memory what size mine are? bit late to go  out in the workshop.

Dont get the white clear stuff it goes hard quick, and some is so tight it causes the stake up outlets to move and leak
