Default Sapphire fuel filler hose

Does anyone know where I can get a new hose or a good alternative replacement for the one I’ve circled in red? Mine has went rock hard and split and I suspect most originals would be the same. Maybe the material isn’t fuel resistant.....

Anyone help?

Contacted Graham Goode to ask about their aftermarket fuel tanks to see if they know of any surge issues

thanks for the reply, how did you get round the size difference between the filler neck and the tank? I measured my tank fitting at 13mm OD and filler neck 20mm OD

Cheers
