Default At work and could really use a part number....Fuel line leak...thanks

I think i have a fuel leak. It seems to be coming from the suply line. I am assuming its the supply line, but it is the rubber line coming from the hard black line on the left firewall and one of the three that comes over the air box and goes to the metal fitting and back to a hard line.

It was dripping gas from the fitting onto the plastic valve covers.

I would really appreciate a p/n if anyone has etka access, or has done this job before.

thanks guys.

Default hmm seems like it. I believe its 36 where it has the fitting on the end.

Not the best picture but i assume that would be on top of the engine where it conencts to the fuel rail after that leaking fitting.

Default I just replaced that one about a month ago. It was leaking at the fitting too. .....

Old (oem) P/N on the hose was VRT DE 8D0 201541AA

All that I can see on the replacement hose is: DE VRT 7.5 x 14.5 03 43 07
