Which hoses/vac lines to replace?

I've got a buch of stuff out of my engine at the moment and I was wondering about replacing various hoses. Most of the smaller vac lines were replaced when it was rebuilt a few years ago, so they're still ok, but some of the bigger ones appear to be the original rubber ones, such as the on that connects under the intake tube between the air filter and TB. Should I order ones from mazda, or just find a tube thats the right diameter from Autozone or something.

Seems like there's a silicon replacement kit with pre-cut lines for our cars. Do a search for "silicon vacuum" on this website and see what you find.

I didn't find anything on a specific kit for our cars. I think I'm just gonna go get a generic kit at o'rielly's.
