Dopey take it with you and match it up at a motor factors you can buy a metric box full of o rings all sizes for penny's
 
This is a pain... its not coming out quote Rave "NOTE: Fuel line connections are of quick
release type. Press retainer, pull fuel line
to remove." err no, its not coming out looks like a bayonet fitting... but it says not??

You have to press whilst jiggling I think I used pliers last time , on the clip as it hurts your fingers when pressing the coat hanger type clip .
 
Was obviously brittle get the pliers get hold of it and wiggle it out your going to have more fun with the bit stuck in the pipe .
 
Ear I think the clip pushes somthing inside to release !! Like a stop lug see them two wings on the new one I just relised you got a new pipe too thank god ! It does say press retainer and you took off the clip that is the the thing that presses the retainer and why do you need o rings the new one has them on the other end is the fip banjo

Ive ####ed it... its down to the nub now, nothing to pull on, what do I do now??? im at a loss
 
ok will put the clip back in and get something to hook it out from the inside... if you know what I mean?
 
Put a 9mm bolt in it, and put the clip back in pushed it down like i was told, wiggled it out, but it came at last, so its done changed the fuel filter while i was at it, put a tie on the MAP tube (the braided pile ((leak off??)) it was a bugger to start up, went to the engine and I forgot to tighten the nut up (one that goes to the block end ((thats why I'm called Dopey))) tightened that up, and a few turns later it fired up, and had a look to see if I had solved the problem ... and hey presto no more air in the pipe, went for a drive, and the pick up and acceleration is a LOT better now as its not running on 25% air lol, but more expensive that way, but its running good and its quiet (for a derv that is) so thanks to one and all for your help
