Default LT1 fuel line source

I'm replacing the fuel line on my LT1. Does anyone know a source for a correct LT1 fuel line? Thanks

Tom thanks for the information, but isn't correct LT1 fuel line larger in diameter than the 3/8 line in the link?

Don't know if you saw this note in the link:

Note: 1963-1982 gas tank to fuel pump fuel lines cannot be installed without removing the Corvette body from the frame.

Are you sure about that? The LT1 only uses a supply line, it does not use the return line that a hydraulic lifter or Rochester carb car uses, but it is still a 3/8's line.
