I replaced a damaged steel fuel lie w/ a used one once
and the used one had smaller holes on both ends,
appeared to be the result of the manufacturing
process.  I took a small drill bit and drilled them
out a bit, and ended up being a little bigger than the
other three. The excess metal was right at the very
ends of the line. Worked great! I think I cleaned the
line out using WD-40 with the little red plastic straw
on the can (about 10 shots!).  Works fine. Go for it!
