A crack in the line beneath the nut.
Vibration eventually gets it. Time for a replacement.

if it's for the 617, I've got plenty of spare lines... none for the 603 though.

The Hard Lines crack more frequently if the clamps that steady the hard Lines are missing or damaged.
With in a few months of buying My Car I bought an extra set of Hard Lines; just incase.

Plus the lines are dainty and probably wall thickness is down on the 603 compared to 617.

I just had to buy a new #4 line for my 603. Probably the same deal. Squirting up from the fitting. The clips that hold the line to stop vibration were broken. Lesson learned. It cost me ~$60 OTD to have the part in hand the next day from the local dealership.

The anti vibration clips fail or someone forgets to re-install them. Normal engine vibration usually cracks the steel line at the compression nut. Line repair is difficult or impossible. .

I did this to my car (OM603.960), prior owner used zip ties and wire to hold hard lines in place.
The clips and pads are not exactly easy to install because they grab so tightly. But once you do this you will be able to remove the line sets (1-3 and 4-6) as a unit if necessary. Here are the parts for a 603 (h/t whunter) Fuel Line Bracket 601-078-20-41-MBZ 2 Fuel Line Bracket 603-078-01-41-MBZ 6 Fuel Line Bracket 601-078-26-41-MBZ 4 Fuel Line Shim 601-078-04-86-MBZ 12 Here is a thread that has pics showing how to mount the clamps. Yes it says glow plugs but the subject came up in the thread. Glow Plugs The rubber pieces go between the hard line and the steel brackets. In some of the locations the pad needs to be trimmed to fit.
