EFI Fuel return line

My fuel return line from the pressure regulator to the fire wall (about 3 feet long) was broken during the disassembly and I need to replace it. I was wondering if it needs to be a high pressure line like the inlet or can I use good hose and hose clamps to clamp it to the regulator. Thanks

I wouldn't use low pressure line on the return side for the fact that if the return line ever got restricted, from a kinked line or a rock hitting a line and crushing it, the low pressure hose could burst and spray fuel all over the engine compartment.

For a few bucks more I would just use the proper hose, and double clamp each end.
