Blown Oil lines???

I have a 90 RX7 the oil lines that lead to the rotors from the little pump are broken. i am wondering will those cause the car not to start? also i am looking for a replacement for those lines. any idea on how much they are and where i can get them?
Aslo i heard that you acan clamp those lines and just use 2 stroke gas?? any one hear of that and or is doing it?

do a search for OMP block off or PREMIX, those lines can def be removed, should not cause starting problems, but I would NOT start that engine without those lines or a suitable premix in the gas tank you WILL blow the engine, there is a nice writeup some where in the Archives for OMP line replacement, if I remember correctly the guy fixed them for like 10 bucks or something, search for that too.
