GA Vacuum hose job

Hey guys, I spent the day working on getting my new DP installed and along the way I broke a few hoses as they were very dry and hard. The hoses in question were..

1. The 90 degree elbow (silicon?) hose that is on the backside of the Charge Relief Valve

2. The end of the hose that runs from the Air Bypass Valve to the Y-Pipe

3. The couplers that attach to the top of the Y-Pipe and to the accordion hose that runs into the air box.


Although I haven't checked the rest of the hoses in that general area I'm guessing they are most likely the same way. Will a hose kit have these specific pieces or will I need to get them elsewhere?

Also, If for some reason I am not feeling up to the task of replacing all of the vacuum hoses can anyone recommend a good mechanic or shop that can do this job for a reasonable price?

Any help on either of these questions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
