Is there anything special about PS return hose, or can I just use rubber fuel line???

I believe the low pressure side is rated to not collapse under a pretty high vacuum so I think it needs to be the right hose

Just go to your local auto parts store, look up the size, and they can cut a section from a bulk roll.  Should be very inexpensive.  They should have the correct hose.  Looks like 3/8 hose and O'Reilly's sell specific power steering hose.  So any auto parts place should have it for you.  It's like $2 per foot cut from a roll.
