Message Either reinforced silicone or SAE30R7 fuel hose. That's what I used for most of my coolant lines. To Jun's point, eliminate that hard pipe, it's only there for the throttle bodies. You can gently bend the hardline attaching to the turbo by hand. See below:

and for the vacuum plumbing, see here:

As Woody mentioned, the two arrows you show don't connect to each other. The back one connects to the gunmetal hardpipe in the picture above, which connects on the other end to the turbo outlet pipe. The two thread-in plenum fittings go to the brake and clutch boosters, which are easy to see above.
