If you can re-use the ends and install a high quality steel braided fuel line you should be fine. I would even trust a good rubber line.

Congrats on the fix. I would have just used a new piece of line and a compression union(s). If it is the piece that screws into the filter, auto parts stores sell that replacement piece, then just use a compression union.

yeah i had to get a whole new line it was pretty bet up but i did buy the lines with the ends done. then used a compression to bring them together and bent it up to fit in the stock clips.
