A former owner didn't know how to remove the quick connects on the fuel filter so he cut the hoses and re clamped them with hose clamps. I can not find new fuel hoses so.
Here's a picture of a proper fix so that you can reuse factory quick connect fittings again. 5/16" steel line to 3/8" vinyl fuel line. I did not clamp the vinyl line and it does not leak. You could also use compression fittings on both ends as well.

They actually have a special tool for repairing those lines, I've used it multiple times when I worked at a dealer.

This one is similar but does the same job. .

I didn't have enough vinyl line left over to install the quick connects. I had to cut the 5/16 steel tubing in order to splice on a new vinyl line and quick connect. I did't know that the tooling was that cheap though .Thanks

Point of clarification, that fuel line is not vinyl, it is nylon. You really really really don't want to use vinyl.

My mistake, you're correct. Vinyl would melt.
