Definitely replace with teflon line.

If you have to go through a bulkhead, and you have the option, your first choice should be a bulkhead fitting (for the same reason you are replacing the line). If you don't have the option of using the bulkhead fitting solution then the grommet is the next best fall back.

Shop around for your line. Some manufacturers have a very stiff line that will buckle as you attempt to bend it. Others have a more flexible version of the same product that can tolerate bends more readily. Ask before you buy.

Map out your fuel line path for the least bends and choose the best vendor you can to meet your pathing solution and of course remember the Kinghts Templar's words of wisdom to Indy as he pondered his choices for the Holy Grail - Choose wisely!
