Default Boost Hose Needed - where from?

having troubles of late with boost surgeing, narrowed the problem down to a bad join onto the T-piece from the boost solenoid and cracks / hole on the hose to the actuator. the pipes look shabby and the one that goes to the solenoid , just where it joins the t-piece is very hard / brittle so im gonna replace the lot while im about it.

anyone know where i can get some boost/ vacumn pipe ??
i could do with some for my boost gauge aswell, do the dealers sell it off the reel?

API - do you stock it ?

I needed a bit for my dump valve and used fuel hose. I had a piece of the stronger stuff for fuel injection lying around but I suppose the ordinary kind will do just as well. Readily available from Halfords, motor factors etc etc
