Before you jump off the deep end, check the hose that is leaking. Are you sure it is a new hose and not the original cut shorter & slipped over the new Banjo?
I can provide a new 15 in length of Multi-Fuel hose w Banjo as above and you can make the repair yourself. I can also do a M-F hose w M14 Female for the return to the tank. You MUST drain the tank to do any of the above. There are also alternative hose clamps as Porsche has used for many years. They have a continuous band inside to keep the teeth from cutting into the hose. In my opinion, for field use the Oetiker clamps are still the best.

Len,
The leaking hose is the original cut and looks like crap on the clamped end (which is clamped to the banjo). I posted pic earlier in thread but it came out crappy, will send more if needed.
I would much rather not do the tunnel and fix these short pieces as you mentioned.
I can either band clamp a simple piece of hose as you mentioned, or if you are able to make something up with a banjo attached that will connect to the male end of the stock tunnel line I'd entertain that as well.
I'd rather it be a repair than a fix now and have it come back to haunt me in a couple seasons.
