on my bmw ive used copper gas pipe, its on ebay, its 8mm copper pipe with a plastic coating to it. I flared the end by knocking something into it. Its been on the car for 5-6 years now, no smell of petrol this way too.

I've been using the microbore copper pipe from Screwfix and it seems to work well.
