That ebay hose is actually what I've been using for EVAP on wife's 5s-fe.
it fits just right, 6mm ID is correct (tight fit). even the OEM hose clamps fit it securely on both ends, so the OD must be close too (meaning wall thickness is similar).
it's a good hose. fuel hose will be too thick (OD) IMO and would require special clamps. there is full engine vacuum running through it, so secure clamps are a must.
I bought it from the same ebay seller (he's from Hong Kong) some time ago. This guys sells good metric hoses. I also bought from him the other smaller ID hoses for EGR modulator to TB connections (and throttle opener too).
