Default Hydraulic steering return line

Hello all.
I bought a Mayfair steering system with a chat-Lynn helm from CPpercormance.
They were skimpy with the high Psi (really medium psi) hose and I need more. The hose is SAE 100R-6 made by jones.

Question is:
Do I need 3000 psi hose for my low psi return line back to the helm?

On my helm I have 3 high pressure lines and the return line has 350lbs marked on it . My system came from IMCO.

My hose is all 5/16" Rob. I'd like to buy 20' or so as opposed to 100' as I'll never use it again.
Thanks for the links though. I'll keep poking around.
