Default Fuel Rail Leak.....Mistery Part

2003 S type 4.2 Not an R....strong fuel smell...found a leak on the left bank fuel rail. Jag dealer sent the parts breakdown (see attachment); however, the part that is leaking is not called out or defined on the drawing. Anyone know of an O ring seal or part fix for this problem other than total replacement of fuel rail?

thanks in advance for any help...

cheers!

That doesn't look like an O-ring or seal. Is it the leaking part?

Yes......when looking at the part on the car, it appears to have an O ring within the part which I believe to be the fault.....could be mistaken though

I think it is a pulse damper. I saw one leak under warranty and we just replaced the whole rail. There is an o-ring in there. Try replacing that.
