I've done this job before and it pays to get submersible fuel line (gasoline resistant on the outside AND the inside) and use stainless steel clamps when you do the job. The non-submersible hose deteriorates and non-stainless steel clamps rust. The submersible fuel line is not cheap, $16-$30 a foot, but, as you note, you only need 6", so it is still cheaper than a new pump.
I've got to say that lately I have been replacing the whole fuel pump unit because, inevitably, the gas gauge starts to act up soon after the tank's been bolted back into the car.
