So my the fuel line on my perkins t63544 that goes between the filters and the inlet of the injection pump had a leak thar was a crack. Need a new line but.... dosen't seem to exsist, then I lost the fitting on the inlet of the injection pump that goes from the steel line so like a 6-7mm compression fitting to the inlet of the injection pump which seems to be 3-4mm pipe thread..... super fun things to try and obtain ..... I can't even change it out for barbed fittings and put a rubber fuel line because it's some crazy size. Just a bit smaller than 1/8 on that end. Other end is 1/4 or very close to it but it only screws on part way so probably different thread pitch than 1/4. But I can just patch in from the remaining steel line to a barb on the high pressure pump if I could possibly find one and then hopefully I can find the correct line and fitting eventually because I don't want a cobble job forever I added some photos... hopefully somone has an idea?
Perkins fuel line..... please help.

You can try to identify the threads at both ends and then go to a hydraulic shop and see if they can make a tube up to work
Swagelok products are available in a variety of different threads and sizes for tubing

did this fitting use a rubber grommet? Are you just missing the nut ? Can you post a picture of the fitting on the injection pump you are trying to attach to.
The fitting had like a crush washer or something.... I lost the fitting now it's just the bare 3mm? Hole on the injection pump. The adapter piece goes from 3mm to I think 6mm and the 6mm has an o ring in it for the compression piece from the steel line. All I needed before was the fuel line but now I need the one fitting too. So I need the adapter piece and the steel line itself

Is it the fitting on the line in the picture?
The one on the side of the fuel filters?
If it is that's a bajo fitting to a flare, easy enough fitting to get.
You can get a banjo to barb if you want to do that.

No it goes right on the high pressure pump, it adapts to the male version of that though as in the part that broke off is male. 3mm is the size on the injection pump, line is like a 6mm
No only one end is a banjo eyelet, other end is 3mm pipe thread male going to 6mm pipe thread female
I managed to find the parts but they are a few weeks away... I actually managed to drill a hole through a bolt and make it into a nipple and then used a rubber hose to cobble it for now
