whats the cylinder thingy they go on to?

You could but they are fuel lines, so make sure any replacement hose is suitable.

The cylinder is the fuel filter housing.

As long as the hoses are rated to carry diesel you'll be fine.

not the easiest of silicone hoses to find then haha :)

You can "over braid" the pipes/hoses without disturbing them. buy the right silicone hose or hose cover. If hose, slice it lengthways and press into place over the pipes/hoses.
