W163 (ML270) Fuel Filter Housing/Pipes

[voguev8]

Just serviced my ML and now it will not start!. Noticed the fuel filter housing is cracked and the connector/pipe to the fuel tank is very brittle (Assume air being drawn in hence not starting) If I fill fuel line/filter then does run but wont restart as soon as I switch off (Lots of air bubbles in fuel line sight).
I have searched on ebay and called a few people but noting avaliable. Any ideas? any diesel W163 breaking etc.
Thanks

I know dronsfields break a lot of mercs, try giving them a call maybe? Have used them for stuff when I had the W208.

Fuel Filter Housing

Could not get a second hand one so had to get a new main dealer item.
In the end I purchased the filter housing and lid and the 2 pipes. The housing came with a new fuel filter inside it. Total price £80. Took 10 minutes to change, then filled the filter and pipes with diesel (I dont have a manual pump)
Started 2nd try. Fine since
