Really? So I'm the first Volvo owner to ever have a leaky CIS injector hose?
Seriously, what's the recommended course of treatment here?

Can I safely swap the line out with one from another make? or do I just need to visit the hydraulic shop?
I grabbed a couple of steel braided Audi lines at the junkyard, but their internal diameter is a little bit smaller. Besides a slight possible reduction in HP, are there any other risks?

Volvo has stopped making this part. And they want close to $200 (per line) for what's left of the old stock.
Surely someone has come up with a good solution to this sort of problem
