I'm going to give the Saab a service shortly, and that involves removing
the fuel distributor head in one unit to do the air filter.

I know that one of the 21 year fuel lines will crack/break from being
flexed so figure I might as well get some new lines/banjo bolts/crush
washers ready.

I know VAG, Porsche and Ford fitted K-Jet and the VAG/Porsche ones are
braided in some cases, instead of the Saab semi-hard plastic lines, but
which were the longer and where would I purchase said ones? I've heard
of people using VW and Audi ones on Saabs, but difficult to pin down
which exact version they used as there were several different ones for
each Golf and Audi model.

Or is there a K-jet specialist who has them/makes them up as needed,
knowing what each car requires?

AIUI, Pirtek or similar should be able to do that with ease.

Would I need to know what individual parts I needed, or could I just go
in and say, "could you make me a set of K-Jet fuel lines in this length
please" and they would know what it needs, being dumb here because while
I know it is a simple system, and was pretty popular, I have no
knowledge of how well known it currently is.

Ah yeah, good point, the obvious solution.
And I know the local depot/trade counter is actually just around the
corner.
Might give them a call with rough measurements to get a best guess
price, them remove the old ones and take them in.
