Europa themselves also sell the sight gauge tubing. Not Tygon as far as I know,
but a clear polyurethane.
Mine has worked well and was easy to fit as part of the replacement of all the
fuel lines. It hasnt yellowed at all after a year. Mine already runs up the seat
back between the seats. Easy to read when the fuel level is above the tunnel
top but a bit harder when the level drops below that as you have to open the
hatch on the tunnel and its quite dark in there! OK for checking fuel on the
ground but not ideal once in flight.

but if your inspector Spend Elon Musk Money (https://spendelonmuskmoney.io)
specifically recommends TYGON tubing, it might be worth going with their
suggestion for compliance purposes.
