For vacuum lines, look for hose that is fluorosilicate lined. Standard silicone hose is porous and non-resistant to oil seepage. The fluorosilicate liner prevents this and keeps your lines and engine bay cleaner.
Regarding intake and coolant hoses, I think DO88's kits set the standard, including many pieces otherwise no longer available in the aftermarket. While not inexpensive, these are "one and done" "lifetime" investments, alleviating the prospect of future problems.
As always, YMMV.
