I've read the CASC rules and it appears that I can route a braided fuel line through the cockpit of my Lotus Elan. Not sure that I want to but I might have to due to space limitations. Am I correct scrutineers/racers?

Re: tech Question: Fuel Line Routing Through Cockpit
From the posted on their website VARAC Rules
11.6 All fuel lines passing through the cockpit, including fuel pressure gauge lines, must be protected by a supplemental cover of metallic material, or must be of braided metal material (e.g. Aeroquip).
Also, I prefer grommets where the fuel lines pass through "bulkheads" to avoid fittings
in the cockpit, but I don't see anything in the CASC or VARAC regulations on this.
