Thanks

It's possible to get new Viton O-rings and put new O-rings in the quick-connect. You'll need 2 O-rings of the right size, an O-ring pick, and some patience fishing the new ones in.

It depends if the rail is damaged, or the quick connect is damaged. Much easier to repair a damaged quick connect than a damaged fuel rail.
