92 ranger fuel return line help

So I noticed while I had my bed off the truck to do the fuel filler, I had to move it and noticed a wierd noise and the top of the tank is now covered in gas. Turns out the fuel return line is cracked at the 90 degree angle at the frame. Looks like the supply, return and fuel tank vent all attatch to a hose assembly that has connectors under the driver seat at the fuel filter. Of corse this is no longer available from ford. I"m wondering if anyone knows of a source for new lines other than going to the local junkyard. I'm not sure if I can get these out without pulling the bed since there's so little room between the bed and frame there.

You could try newer ranger fuel lines but I think it would just be easier to use anti-kink fuel line.
Return is a 0psi pressure hose but I would still used barbed fittings.
If you want to keep Ford connectors then just cut end off of current hose leaving 4 or 5 " attached and use barbed fitting on cut end.

I was thinking of something like this but idk if it has a straight barbed union to connect the 2 plastic lines. Looked this p/n up on advance and it shows what looks like a brass union with hose clamps
