If anyone has the 4 lines that go from the pump to the injector, I am in need of them. The PO removed them and were not included with the engine.

You'll probably want to mention which motor/injection pump. There are about 3-4 different variations for IDI motors:
1.6NA (to 1988 with short delivery valves)
1.6TD (to 1988 with short delivery valves)
1.6NA (with altitude compensation device) and 1.6TD (from 1989 with long delivery valves)
1.9 TD (with long delivery valves)
In the last post, the upper pipes are off a 1.9TD, the lower ones look to be off a late 1.6TD or 1.6NA.
how difficult would it be to manufacture something like this, could I make them myself? what kind of piping and connectors to use?
Easy enough to build.
Need a flaring kit for injector lines.
Need line enough to practice and lose a few tries at.
Need the nuts.
Buying the tools and materials to make your own will make the new ones from the dealer look like a heck of a bargain.
The line is not like brake line. Very small hole, thick walls, for injector use.
My advice. Fuggetaboutit. The used line is the cheapest way out. New lines, the next cheapest, then, buying the tools, learning how to use them, and making good parts, at the most expensive.
Being able to make your own lines, when you cannot get them at all, though, priceless!
