LOL, not OEM but I'm just using standard automotive vacuum hose on mine but my bike is far from stock. Have one running from head to breadbox breather and one from the tranny to my oil tank. 1976 cb750F1    ...cougar...

I know this probably seems very ghetto but I used a stub piece of rubber hose and an old tshirt trimmed nicely so it doesn't look too trashy. You can't rly see it and its clean so it doesn't really draw the eye

My tranny is connected to the oil tank via a vacuum hose tho, no redneck engineering there
