I think you can use any hose currently sold as fuel hose. Our 28-30 
psi is within the ratings of any fuel hose, so there's no reason to 
buy special fuel injection hose. (Modern FI cars use much higher 
pressures.)

The correct size is 5/16". I have good quality 5/16" fuel hose with 
smaller OD so it can pass thru the grommets that we have in 3 places.
If you're getting leaks in old hoses, it's probably time to replace 
them all. The ones up front age much more slowly than the ones near 
the engine.
