Just keep them a tad short of reaching the deck and back.

Regular neoprene hose or fuel line? 3/8"?

5/16" fuel line

Yes I do thanks Nelson looks to be about 1/8" shy of reaching the deck I'm sure the same gap on the inside.

This is a 280 with 114 original hours; first time that it has been apart, so this is the way that they were installed at Mercury. 1/8" is about right for inside and outside.
