Hi everyone! I have fuel leaking from a cracked hose over the MOT and near the duo valve. Please see attached pics. Would it be possible for me to just clamp on a new hose or do I have to have this crimped like the original?

This is your fuel return line. From the rail, through the fuel cooler (the metal canister visible on the picture) back to the tank.
If it is leaking fuel - STOP - this fuel line must be replaced, otherwise you can set your car on fire!

noted thanks! I replaced the line with a regular DIN 73379 fuel line while I order the assembly part number
