The fittings, last I measured, were 7mm. I think 8mm would be a bit of a loose fit... I don't think metric fittings are necessary, particularly if you get barbed fittings. Which I would recommend. Do use the FI-style hose clamps, not the "regular" ones that slice up the hose as you crank them down.
