You can find that line at PNP for about $10. I pulled one off a w116 300SD and one off a 84 W123 300D. same engine more or less, but the bends are different. some of the one`s from the junk yards are good, but look closely where the clamps are tightened down. I have seen some with holes worn through.

If that clamp and bracket isn`t securely fastened on the back of the head. the line will crack on the other end down at the oil filter housing. I have personal experience on that.

That is a high pressure oil line going to the turbo. bubble gum won`t fix it.

We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works
