Hey all -

Went to drive my truck today (I rarely do, just for work runs, etc.) and noticed it is spraying a fine, small spray of fuel out of the rubber/nylon/plastic line that crosses over the two banks for the fuel rail. Something must have chewed a pin hole by the looks of it - so, clearly needs to be fixed. I understand that the fuel rail itself is no longer produced, so how can I go about fixing it? It looks like the hose is shrink fit - not sure I trust myself with that. Can a replacement be made, or convention fuel injection hose and clamps? Some other trick fix?

Thanks in advance!
