Heat Shielding for Fuel Pipe - Suggestions?

[v8s4me]

I need to replace the 15mm ID pipe that runs from the bottom of the fuel tank to the back of the fuel pump. On the V8S is runs very close to the exhaust pipes so I'd like to replace the old heat shielding with new. This is the silver tubular stuff which slips over the pipe.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance

I replaced that with copper, which gives a much tighter bend without buckling and also has thinner walls so it ends up quite a bit further from the exhaust. Being rigid, it also doesn't hang down like that hose did. It would be very difficult to fit as a single unit so I made it in two parts joined with a short hose. I forget where I got the insulation wrap from but it was similar to the stuff used over the original hose.
