i have a 1987 evinrude 70hp with oil injection. the original hose 4 the oil injection was as hard as arock so i pulled it out of the tank and off the motor. i didnt think it would be this hard to get a replacement hose but i cant find 1/4" oil line anywhere. they guys at auto zone and advanced told me i could use fuel line but im kinda hesitant on that. does any one know where i can get 1/4" oil line? or can i use fuel line. im just afraid that the oil will destroy a fuel line. please help, i would like to have the boat on the water as soon as possible.

Fuel line is fine. It will handle about any hydrocarbon liquid.
