Default Fuel line question

Thanks for the info here is a bit more detail. I am building a biplane with
a center section fuel tank. Some of the fuel lines will be out in the
breeze. Still use the 5052-0 in those locations?

3/8" but in what alloy?


In the fuselage, usually 5052-0

In the engine compartment, either fire sleaved, teflon lined stainless
braid or (for short runs that don't have to flex) solid stainless.
