Need to change fuel pressure hose '86 300SE
Hello,
I recently bought a 1986 300SE, and have been gradually bringing it up to my required standards.
One of the last mundane things was to change the fuel filter, but the metal screw at the base of the fuel pressure hose which leads from the filter towards the engine is entirely rusted and cannot be opened without damaging the metal section of the hose.
So I need to change the hose.
I found the exploded view which shows the part I need (part 19 in the attached pdf), but have not been able to find it on ebay or in the other merc parts online shops I know.
Can anyone point me to where I can find this part? (new preferred, used also acceptable)
And also, if anyone can give me the MB part number, this will be helpful in my search.
Thanks in advance,
Jeremy
PS. I am in the Netherlands, so European sources are preferred, but of course it is no problem to ship from anywhere in the world

found it!
After a bit more webcrawling I found the part.
MB# is 1264704275 and it can be found in a number of places, with prices ranging from 22.26$ in the US, to 30.75 pounds in the UK (that's 50$ - more than twice the price!).
I'm waiting for responses from a couple of the US suppliers if they can ship to NL, and for what price, and how long it takes to get here, before deciding where to order.
