tygon fuel line tubing for oil injection lines

Has anyone ever used this product for oil injection line rebuilds? http://www.tygon.com/product_detail.aspx?id=181468

I can't find any info on heat range but if it is a fuel/oil/coolant line so i would assume it has a usable range.

Any one have any insight on this product??

Tygon has long been a brand of choice for watercooling loops in PCs, never investigated it's suitability for the OMP lines.
Can't see any reason that type wouldn't work though.

the only thing im worried about is the heat, as i cant find any info on heat tolerances. Does the area that the oil lines run get very hot?

165 degrees F maximum, doesn't sound good enough to me.
