You cant replace it with silicon vaccuum line. If you have a local auto parts store then just tell them how long you need the hose to be and they will be able to make you one that fits. Or you can call ray at malloy mazda and he will hook you up.

Some silicon vac lines aren't capable of withstanding 100+ C coolant or the radiant heat from the turbos. I'd order the factory ones and get new factory hose clamps too.

I used rubber fuel hose. Shouldn't be too hard to find but you need to make sure it doesn't kink.
