Rubber fuel line around prefilter? (300CD)

My OM617 is leaking fuel on both sides of the in-line prefilter. Looks like it is time for new rubber lines on both sides. Is that rubber line 5/16"?

Might as well go ahead and change the in-line filter while I'm at it.

That sounds right. If any probelms at the store, have them use a new filter to test fit the 5/16.

It's 5/16" and change it. You're lucky you aren't getting air leaks in the fuel system and losing prime.

Thumbs up I am in violent agreement.

Replace the Diesel Cigar Hose.
Mine developed a pin hole, a few weeks after the primary filter hoses cracked.
