Those would be fine. You don't need anything special, there's not a shit ton of oil pressure there. Just make sure you use proper Oil Lines and not something from Lowes (like I've done, hahaha)

Any fuel rated reinforced 3/8'' ID tubing will work along with hose clamps. I've gotten away with worse.

Barbs will work

Hose clamps get slack over time. Just check im every ful moon. My bud was showing his ass on the freeway once. Saw two guys ahead on baggers, twisted thethrottle on his cb chop and passed close one the left. Just then his line to the tank shot off and he sprayed those poor guys down with hot oil! It was fucked up.
