Just got the call from my Indy mechanic and my 854 passed state inspection and emissions for another year. :) Only one thing he suggested I replace is a formed fuel line type hose under the bonnet and beneath some kind of shield. The hose (original)was leaking gas pretty bad and he double clamped it for now.
He said he would mark it for me with a yellow crayon but I don't know what to ask for when I call the dealer. Does anyone know the exact name of this hose or have a part number?

Thanks!

    Sounds like it's probably the hose labelled "C" in this pcv tutorial at Step 6, I used the larger hose he mentions, but it's a standard fuel hose, no trip to the dealer necessary.

    Hope that's it! I had to remove mine bit by bit it was so deteriorated.

      Thanks Bud for the quick response and pics. I am still at work and didn't pick
      the car up yet so not sure if that is it or not. Will inform tomorrow.

        The shield is the aluminum cover over the fuel rail. Just grab it and pull forward, it will pop off with little effort. Putting the shield on, put it in the groove and bang it with the parm of your hand.

        Any auto parts store will have a 5/16 fuel line. Get a good quality one and 2 screw type clamps to hold it in place.

        I would also get a cheap vacuum line long enough to encase the fuel injector wires. Slit it down one side completely and feed it over the wires for added protection. The OEM stuff gets brittle and doesn't work.
