If you are on about the vacuum advance/retard pipes then I replaced ours (Pierburg carb) with 3.2 mm fuel hose on each end and 4 mm od nylon tube between them. This is a tight fit and won't leak even without clips.

I replaced every single vacuum hose on mine too, and have providing a link to the supplier in the thread below

Ok, I found these, which I think are the right type, can someone confirm for me please, then I will purchase these..
