Default preesure fuel line connector

I installed a new fuel pump in a 2004 Porsche Boxster S. Now the pressure fuel line connector at the fuel pump is leaking fuel. Any suggestions to fix it? Cannot even find the part

Tough situation. Connectors are heat shrunk in place and once you cut it back then it likely will be too short. Best repair is to replace the entire line. May require dropping the fuel tank to access it. Unsure if there is a repair solution out there.

This guy shows how to retrofit a connector to an existing line, but I think would be difficult in the limited space available w/o removing the line from the car, in which place I would just replace it.


Maybe others have better ideas....
