Just a couple of ideas that might help - hydraulic return line hose may
work fine for your application. It's low pressure hose that is
obviously oil resistant. Look in yellow pages under "hydraulic" parts
and repair, etc. Another idea may be to contact an industrial rubber
and hose distributor and explain your problem.
