TR6 Questions on emission tank-to-canister pipe

I have a few questions regarding the emission/vent pipe that runs between the fuel separation tank and the charcoal canister. My car had many changes/simplifications when I purchased it, so I can't be sure of what was 'stock' on a 1973 TR6. It appears however that the emission line began as a steel line at the back of the car and was shaped exactly like, and followed the contours of the steel fuel line - and perhaps even terminated at the same point the fuel line terminates (the point where it transitions to flexible fuel line hose to connect to the tank). Can anyone confirm that?

It also appears that at some point the steel emission line transitioned to a flexible nylon line, but where did that transition occur? And does anyone have a source for that nylon line?
