I just went and got the 10ft pack of 5/16" Dayco efi fuel hose.  I'm using
the standard (good quality) Dayco hose clamps (a single on each line is OK)
with all the lines flared with the little bump on the end.  Haven't had a
problem so far.  If you can't flare the little bump, most plumbing stores
sell them for compression fittings, just get some of these and silver solder
onto the end of the pipe.
