I use ParaFilm to seal all sorts of tubes and hoses. This stuff is great!Ah.. this stuff seems vaugely familiar. I think I used it long ago at some place I worked.. Good tip!
Clingy/stretchy/waxy, impervious to most lab and garage liquids (IME,) it seals on most
any clean surface and comes off cleanly and easily! (this is not the shameless plug
part, no interest, holdings, etc, etc.) See...

The 2 in. x 250 ft. would last several Alfisti for a long, long time.
And, while you're in the buying mood, consider an assortment of Weber and Solex jets! (shameless plug here...)
