What hole? There shouldn't be a hole in that line.

Re: I cant stop this leak

if u mean its spraying out from under the the nut were the line is yes there is an oring under there u can replace.

if its not the oring its possible that the threads got crossthreaded at which point u will have to goto the junkyard and grab a new fuel rail and cold start injector

Re: I cant stop this leak

The threads seem fine, i wasnt aware there was an oring inside. And yeah i meant where the line goes through the hole in the top of the nut. I will look for an oring that will fit. If anyone has anymore info, let me know.
