My thinking is 1/2 to & 3/8 from, any suggestions/recommendations will be gratefully appreciated.

Definitely not copper, highly illegal and potentially dangerous.

Steel Bundy tube is plated against corrosion and can look sort of copper colored so might look like copper tube. This is what is used for fuel lines in production cars.

I went with aluminum hard lines for mine. Probably overkill with a 1/2" main and a 3/8" return. A 3/8" main and a 5/16" return would probably be plenty.

Cheers
