I use steel brake lines from the auto store. Threads on fittings are compatible. I installed a spin on filter using the brake lines, and all is fine. Just need to check the appropriate length. On my project I had to shorten one line, and I used the same flaring tool I use on copper lines. It's a little harder, and I don't think you can get as much flare with the steel as you do the copper, but it's enough-- I've had no problems after about 4 years.

Since they only carry a maximum of 50 (or so) PSI, in theory you could use either. However, the OEM steel will tolerate a lot more abuse from bumps and bruises likely to be encountered on a tractor. Get the OEM replacements.
