The larger O ring looks like it's for the banjo bolt. Smaller one still a mystery.

Car is new to me, only two weeks. Been running perfectly until last night, started to feel some slight engine hesitation on the highway. Parked it on a hill last night facing up-hill and wouldn't start this morning.

The fuel lines going to-from the main fuel filter have no bubbles at all. It's just the lines for the pre-filter. Since both the pre-filter lines have bubbles (I'll take a photo tonight to point out what I'm seeing), I assume the leak is before the pre-filter. I'm not familar enough with it yet to know what is before the pre-filter.

I'm a long-time VW diesel guy so I know diesels and know about air leaks. I do all my own wrenching. This is my first MB so I'm still learning about the beast - thanks all for your help!
