Default 2000 Evap can rubber fittings

2000 XJ, evap canister (driver side just ahead of the rear axle.
The evap can has 3 nipple connections.
The ,25" hard line from the gas tank vent has a rubber fitting that connects the .25" dia hard line to the .36 (3/8"?) nipple.
This rubber connector is rotted and crumbling.
I have wasted a day searching and visiting parts stores, no luck.
Any ideas where to get a rubber .25 to .35 transition??

Thanks,
Slack.

I know this is an old thread but it came up in my search and has no answer so here's what my fix was.

Take about 2" of 1/4" fuel line get it hot in some boiling water and then fit it over the larger connection on the evap canister then attach to the fuel vent line and it looks factory fresh.
