Default ahh fuel leak

does anyone know where i can get the quick release clips that clip on the fuel line above on the fuel pump above the tank. i think me fuel return clip has broke and its leaking fuel when i turn the car off. i dropped the tank a and its loose but havent got the time to take the whole tank off and no part to do it , plus its raining!
anyone know a code for that part

this is why its hard to start in the morning i think as its losing the pressure. does that sound right?
its a mk5 escort by th way

I think youhave to but the whole section of fuel line mate, as a quick fix cut it off and use a small jubilee clip.
