Air Line/ Vac Line replacement not covered under CPO

Diagnostic: leaks in some hoses in the air system.
Recc: Repair to the air line at $264. Or repair air line and replace 4 vacuum lines that look frail for a total cost of $675.

Should I just get the repair to the airline and replace the vacuum lines with an indy later? Or is that a reasonable enough price to just have them replaced while the car is in?

Thanks

Hoses aren't covered, anything rubber is considered a wear and tear item.

Do it all at an indy??
Are they going to charge you a diagnostic fee (~$140, not the usual $50) because it is not covered?
