its the 3.4mm braided fuel hose. i prefer the outerbraid because it gives decent scuff resistance when the hoses rub across the engine.

weather dependant, i will change the hoses tomorrow.

I would not recommend those, they are normally for diesel spill off hoses, they have thinner walls and can collapse with time under atmospheric pressure with high vacuum inside especially when they get hot and softer. If you look at hoses that are specifically deigned for vacuum they have much thicker walls. But if you have a version with thicker walls or specifically designed for vacuum then obviously it will be fine.
