One thing to note about fuel hoses. Always make absolutely sure that the fuel hose conforms to either BS (British Standards) or AU (Germany's equivalent) standards. Failing to do this could cause your van to burn down to the ground !!
Avoid rubber fuel hoses at all costs.

Local motor factors usually has it in, its normally for fuel injection so a lot tougher than the stuff that comes off.. it normally has the size printed on the outside every 300mm or so....
