fuel filter replacement

Hello All (again),
I was hoping to get me fuel filter replaced today but I chickened out. I was reading in the Bentley about the replacment and they mentioned clamping the fuel lines on either side of the filter. My car is an '89 900. When I was under there checking out what I was in for I looked carefully at those fuel line. They look quite "old". Not very supple. My fear is that if I clamp them I might crack or damage one and end up with a fuel leak. Is this a valid concern? Are they more hardy than they look or am I being too cautious. BTW, I do believe the filter needs to be replaced. Looks like the one that's in there now is VERY old. Quite corroded.
TIA,
Scooter
