I want to replace my fuel lines. I was thinking of getting braided lines, however the 8mm inner diameter and 13mm outer diameter hose is hard to come by, and so far impossible to find in the braided variety. Has anyone used 5/16 standard (id) 9/16 (od) hose as a replacement? If I'm right, the size difference is the standard size hose is 3/1000ths smaller (id) and 4/100ths larger (od). The standard sized hose is easy to find and cheap.

Thta's what I used. As long as you get the lines pressure rated for fuel injection, you should be OK.
