Still too much!!
The ID of the fuel hose is 8mm which is approx 3/8. I got some new fuel line, hose clamps, and a brass 90 deg with barb on one side and threaded adapter to a barb on the other. I cut the one barbed end down just long enough for a hose clamp. It should fit, I'll take pics after I do it today or tomorrow.
Total parts cost under $10

8mm is closer to 5/16 fuel line that'll take bio or diesel or gas or veggy... for less than $1/foot.
Those quarters look close, if you need the bent shaped hose with tight turning radius maybe that's what you're paying for? But if you have room to cut ample fuel line and give it a curvy route.. should be fine.. if you have the room. But a brass elbow for $2 could also solve the job.
11mm is close to 3/8".
you can get a check valve for diesel on ebay for $11
clamps, re-use the Mercedes, nothing better!
