Our lift has a Deutz diesel and it started seeping fuel on the top of the motor return lines. one had a small pin hole began that was spritzing fuel at one of the cast line holders on the head. The hose has a small rubber inside with a cloth braiding on the outside. Went to a local Deutz tractor dealer and he was kinda clueless. Said, 'Here is what I use" and handed me a length of rubber U.S. sized fuel hose. Got home and it was way loose and wouldn't fit in the holders. Blew off without hose clamps or wire ties.
Did some searching and found this guy on Ebay. Correct, German made hose at a good price. There is enough to do everything on top of the motor. Just cut to the lengths you need and slip on. Check your motor as the seep through the line as they age. If they are wet, replace it and be done. I'm going to order another for a spare. Just thought I'd pass this along to others because I know they use these air cooled diesels on a lot of equipment.
Here is a link to the current available auction:
