Well our local dealer never called me back with availability and the local NAPA had them for me at 2:30pm.
The lines from the filter to the cooler/radiator cost me $29- that is with o-rings etc.
They really where not bad to do as I was changing the oil and filter anyways...
You can go online with NAPA and look them up with photos and suggested retail.

If your talking about remote oil filter lines you can use steel braided lines #8 with AN fittings it cost about $100 to remake the new lines. Fittings & Hose can be bought from any Hydraulic store. Jegs.com or summitracing.com has everything also. Once you make this change you'll never face a leak or break again.
