Do we think these double 8mm O/D, P clips will be ok for fuel lines come IVA time?

I wouldn't use them for any job. they are just asking for trouble down the line with any friction causing the two pipes to wear through over time.

2 'P' clips with a single fastener works well.

I can see no issues with IVA, as long as they are secure.
Wear over time would be considered acceptable, providing its not premature wear, ie multiple years later not months!
As above though - I went for the twin Pclip route. Looks tidier.

This would be my preference as well - 2x rubber lined single P clips with 1x fixing.

A small piece of PVC or rubber hose inserted on one of the two lines wil remove all traces of wear..
Or most of it.

I used these double clips, hold the pipe secure and neatly
