Arent there AN parts intended for rubber fuel hose that would do the job of
bulkhead penetration? They also happen to look very smart :-)

Have you looked around at what the Rally and Off-Road Vehicles are using.
They use a Bulkhead Fitting secured to a firewall and then connect each
side. These connections can be for Metal or armoured tubing.
Worth going to see one of these type of Suppliers but DONT tell them it's
for an Aircraft. They will charge more and want you to indemnify them
against accident claims!
