Fuel line has 3 pin holes

Well I did a few 3rd gear pulls on a strip by me and bounced the limiter and decelerated from 8250 back to 5k rpm so I didn’t need to slam the brakes in and immediately smelt a strong odor of fuel. So i popped the hood and saw the manifold was slightly wet. See pic. The removed the carbon fiber engine cover by the oil filter housing cap to find the fuel line has 3 small pin holes that I assume just happened.

Anyone ever have an issue? Car has 130k miles exactly

Just replace the line.

When did you install intake manifold spacers or last carbon clean?

3 weeks ago

how’d you know?

Common problem with people getting overzealous when tweaking the lines around.

my manifold has been pulled off 6 times since i had it in 4 years for carbon cleans etc, then injectors. i did the spacers at 72k miles…

anyone have to part number or diagram of this? i can’t seem to find it

I have the diagram but the file upload folder is full. I’ll post a link.
