It sounds like the new revision plans are doing what many builders (Bob Newman
and me) have done and installed bulkhead fittings at the fuselage instead of a
continuous tubing run from selector to tank.  I'd really like to see what other
changes they have instituted.  Per the previous message from Bob, you probably
want to use a large rubber grommet rather than solid washers as per AC 43,
you do not want tubing between bulkheads without some type of strain relief.
