Fuel leak, what is this part?!

Recommended Posts

In need of a bit of a help please ladies and gents! My C has been leaking fuel and we've jacked it up today and found the source, however, need a bit of advice on identifying parts so I can get some replacements. I've attached a couple of photos to try and highlight what I mean!

 

The circle shows where the source of the leak is - should there be any clips on this where the rubber joins the metal? And what is this pipe referred to as so I can get a replacement? Also, what IS that really rusted unit behind the pipe?!

In this photo, is the really rusted pipe coming out of the fuel pump?

Sorry for all the questions, still a bit of a newb at this mechanical business, would really appreciate any advice on what to replace and how! Thanks! :)

Well there are no clips holding the stiff black tube in place on my 16V.

 

The really rusted thing is your accumulator.

 

Don't know the name of the rusted pipe but I believe it goes from your fuel pump to your accumulator.
