Correct repro 4bbl fuel pump to carb line?

Does anyone make a correct fitting fuel pump to carb line? Car in question is a '71 Vista Cruiser, 455 4bbl. From other posts it looks like none are correct, either a liitle off requiring some bending or way off.

Or, should I look for a used OEM one?

Thanks!

What are the reviews of InLineTubes offering?
Their ‘65 fuel line was pretty close for me.

I got what was supposed to be an exact reproduction for my '69 4-4-2 from ILT. With enough tweaking from my handheld tube bender, it was made to function.

I found it easier to attach the fuel line loosely to the fuel pump and then attach the other end to the carb loosely while the carb is off the manifold, then mount the carb in place bending the fuel line gently to fit. I used this method when I replaced the ILT fuel line on my 65 442
