Automotive tire Motor vehicle Rim Auto part Metal

White Light Black Motor vehicle Auto part

I’m struggling to find this online. It’s a high pressure fuel injection pipe I assume and mine it’s squirting diesel everywhere when the engine is started.
It’s the one with a little white tape around it. Any idea or a part number or where I could find one?
Thank you
2008 A5 3.0 TDI

Any work done on it? Has it been removed for any reason? I would try nipping that up first.

It may help if we knew the model, engine size and year the car was made.

No, none. RAC removed it to inspect and put it back on. It isn’t loose at all so it’s likely a hairline crack

Was it leaking before they removed it?

Yes it was. Fuel squirts up from it upon starting the engine. Here’s a video. Sorry for poor quality. Ejaculating pipe

Looks like the fuel delivery pipe from the HPFP (high pressure fuel pump) to the fuel rail. Also looks like someone has tried some ptfe tape to seal it. I bet the connections is damaged where the pipe seals on. Possibly 059130309AH

That was me just giving a whirl with some PTFE tape. Obviously it didn’t work. Thanks so much for your help :)

If it's the pipe I think it is, it's under serious pressure so no amount of plumber's tape will hold that one tight.
