I'm looking for a set of used NOS fuel lines, mainly I want the barbed banjo's on the ends.

New ones are available HERE at BelMetric. The injector lines use these. Not sure about the others. It's hard as hell to get the OE fittings out, and it's game over if there is even the tiniest bit of damage on the barb (slice mark from a razor, etc) or the banjo sealing surfaces. They're not really meant to be reused.
You'll need the press tool for Polyamide line, as well

Thanks for the link, I think it's the porsche manual that recommends using a soldering iron to perforate a line in the Polyamide down the barb. I haven't tried it yet so I don't know how well it will work.
Be very careful of the NOS barbs. I've read that people had problems with the barb to banjo joint cracking when they were attempting to reuse ( probably used too much force installing the new lines).
Also inspect them for any corrosion that would compromise integrity.
