This is not exactly what you asked but take a piece of fuel line down to a good auto supply and ask them to help you find a size that the tubing will slip over. These are usually the plastic type used for air lines in a vehicle. I never had any trouble with them in fuel line service.

Aluminum or plastic, I use both. You can pick them up at most hobby stores that carry Dubro and Sullivan hardware. In a pinch you can use the one obtained at garden supply stores used for small irrigation drip lines. File down the sharp tips.

Go to the local fish store.
They have chrome plated brass T's for $1.29 to 1.69 each.
They work great. The ones I buy are soldered and then plated.
No leaks.
