fuel line size KZ1000J

I am dumb and threw away my old cruddy fuel line in advance of measuring the line size. The bike is an 82 kz1000LTD with BS34's. I ordered some 1/4" line from Z1 with a fuel filter, and only now realized that they have another size, 3/8" (I think). What size is standard on these bikes? I looked it up in the manual and it doesnt say, it just says to change it at regular maintenance intervals.
