The vaccum line was steel tubing with a short piece of rubber tube at the  
carb. The original steel tube is often replaced with copper as it is much 
easier  to find.

Peter,

Good suggestion.  The vacuum hose can always be  glued to the tubing if it 
is a
little loose.  How often does one need  to remove the vacuum hose from both
ends?

Wait a minute.   Didn't the 1600s have brass tubing all the way to the 
vacuum
unit?   Or, was that just early cars?  I know the 1600 vacuum units have  a
compression fitting for a tubing connection. Was the vacuum line rubber  
part
of the way and then tubing?

try a hobby store - they have small brass tubing  which you can bend - may
not have a nipple end  but it is not  crucial
