Fuel pump replacement / swap

I replaced my fuel pump & broke the fuel pump line from the pump to the assembly. Anyone know how to remove that line without breaking it?

What is the best replacement for that line?

it is a tight u turn that a normal fuel link will kink. i also cant easily find a 5/16" tigh u-turn elbow.

You mean something like this?

Auto Performance Engineering - Walbro fuel pumps and more

I didn't have any problems taking that off, but if you already ruined it, what's stopping you from slitting it up the side a bit where it connects and peeling it off?

*EDIT*
I've never purchased anything from them, that just turned up with a quick google

During this endevour i also found that the only way to remove that line is to heat & warm the plastic line & it pulls right off. also that line is the "8 mm on each end, 136 mm [5.35 in] length."
