Isn't the braiding just for preventing bursting and slicing of a softer
inner material? what material is used for the inside lining?

I've installed many a fuel line on boilers with soft copper tubing (#1 &

fuel). There are also *fused* valves available (fire-o-matic) that will
shut
off fuel supply in an intense heat situation. I'll defer to Doug's
expertise
in this situation though.
To the OP, if you're going with metal tubing, I'd recommend a flared
connection, or at least stay away from compression (nut and ferrule)
types,
which tend to leak with vibration.

If you're worried about fire protection, and you want leak-proof
metal. I would use stainless steel braided aircraft hose.

It's also much easier to install than a rigid tube.
