Joe,

I have small diameter translucent yellow gas compatable hose, just like the 
larger stuff in the overflow hose kit you already got. I can sell you whatever 
length you need. If some of what you need is the larger diameter, just tell me 
what dia port it needs to fit and I will check to see if any of what I have will 
work.

If you're really looking for the OE style black stuff, any good foreign car shop 
may have it, but be prepared for sticker shock. That stuff is really $$$ in the 
larger diameters.

Note also that you need hose that's compatable with gas. What you can find 
in most hardware plumbing depts won't work, unless it is specifically called 
out as fuel hose.
