Shane I cant speak for the blokes that drove them through the desert in WW2 but from personal experience thats what happened to me.

The original lines are steel but are covered in a fabric. They also have a couple of curls in them. Note at the top of this photo you can see the curl in the fuel line.
Admittedly this is a 2WD 13 Cab but i'm pretty sure it'd be the same in a 12 Cab...

So all the lines in mine are rubber from the tank to the tank tap to the pump to the carbie.

Also enables you to put a couple of in line fuel filters. Mine are on each chassis rail between the tanks and the tap.
