Looking at that photo ..I would be asking myself what the heck is going on to cause that dimensioning of tubing wall on the fuel line.  

@mike20papa  not sure what you are seeing here? The fuel lines going into gascolator looked OK to us.

Please forgive my amateur observations.

Could it be the brake line that @mike20papa is referencing and not fuel line?  Looks like some chafing has occurred in a few places.

I think the safety wire job could be better.  It doesn’t take a direct route from the nut to the anchor point.  There should be room on the gascolaoter base to drill a new safety wire hole and then the anchor point doesn’t have to go up to the AN fitting at the top.

Thanks for the observations.  The dark marks on the brake line are just grease/oil and good point about the safety wire.  That pic was prior to removal and it was fixed on reinstall.
