Your nearest hydraulics pipe place, will be much better than some manky old overpriced cossie items, that's what I'd do anyway, just buy pipes with correct ends on in the length you want and bend to shape, if I were doing it though I'd go flexy all the way.

There's many different types or material for flexy that can be used here, as ATF is not a especially nasty fluid, I used some inner braided flexy pipe from my then local pipe place, was just bog std industrial stuff rated to 300bar.
Just pop along to a hydraulics place and have a chat is the best bet imo.
