Fuel line size from filter to MFi

Trying to establish which is the correct size tubing / product for the fuel line from the fuel filter to the MFi on my 72T.

Noticed yesterday that it currently has a 5/16" ID tube installed - surely this isn't correct?

I've found conflicting info from various parts diagrams:

7.3 ID / 13.5 OD

7 ID / 12 OD

6 ID / 11 OD

Anyone know which is correct?? It's the orange line shown below, assume all other lines marked '13' are the same spec.

As long as it is a firm fit over the fittings without having to use undue force, I don't think I would worry about it. The electric fuel pump supplies so far in excess of what is required (with the excess recirculating back to the tank) that I don't think it really matters, within reason.
