I have a 28 year old 026 and am replacing the filter and fuel line for the first time (the saw runs fine, it just seems like it is time to do this). It has that same short line that you pulled out of this 028. According to a bunch of arborist forums that I've checked, the J-shaped replacement line won't fit into the hole in the gas tank unless it is enlarged, which I don't want to try so I found the short OEM fuel line on E-bay. I'm trying to figure out how to put the filter on the end of the line after the line is installed in the tank, I guess it will have to be stretched quite a bit and I'm hoping that it doesn't tear.
Yes that is a original gas line

I didn’t want to stretch that out that much . The one I put in seemed to fit in place
