W126 - hose/tube question?

Good morning!

First time poster here. I recently got a 1987 420sel in pretty good condition. I am a classic car enthusiast and looking to fully restore this car to as close to mint conditions as I can with all OEM parts (if possible).
I am having trouble locating some original parts and would love some guidance. Can anyone tell me where I can buy this “check valve clear vacuum hose”? I have attached the picture. A lot of these clear tubes have become brittle and breaking with just a touch. Looking for OEM please. Any help is appreciated!! Thanks all!

This is where I got my vacuum hoses from. They fit a little tight so I used a little grease to slip them on. You need 6 orders of this to complete one car.
