I recently had to replace a line in my VW Golf, and I used the regular rubber stuff available at the NAPA store. All fuel line sold today for cars must be ethanol proof, since almost all fuel has it.
I've always assumed aluminum, etc., fuel line used on airplanes is there to save weight. It certainly doesn't seem to be more durable. In theory it's fireproof because it's metal, but in a high heat situation it would probably melt anyway. Maybe the smartest thing to do for a plane today would be to use only fuel system components that are tolerant of ethanol, then just use regular mogas.

Will handle FI pressures in excess of 60PSI and lots of ethanol. Hope this helps?
