My O-320 still has the data-plate and is a certified engine. I am replacing the oil hoses. This is sort of a rhetorical question, but can I legally use uncertified hoses on this engine in my RV-6?

Thank you all for the quick responses. And, that gives me a pretty complete understanding of the issue. I work with an A&P/IA who is also employed by the local FSDO. He and I have a very good working relationship and I never want to put him into an uncomfortable position.

FWIW I have found washing machine hose and tractor hydraulic hose used for fuel lines on certified aircraft. Needless to say they got pitched in the trash.
