I just thought at $55 shipped, the entire assembly with aluminum fittings was a good price:

Metzger CDI Fuel Return, OM648, E320 CDI

I'd consider this one of the PMs our 2005-6 CDI's should have done given the age and mileage of these vehicles. The switch over to to low sulfur fuel early in their lives and the multiple heat cycles under the engine cover play havoc on the rubber fuel lines.
That is a decent price, compared to the dealer. However, I personally would be leery about buying from Latvia. That is why I found a stateside vendor for the fittings. They arrived in only a couple days from ordering. I am sure you will let us know how it turns out.

Metzer fuel leak off line with fittings arrived from Latvia well wrapped and in perfect condition.

The part is currently on sale for $49.51 including shipping!

Check it out:

Metzger CDI Fuel Return, OM648, E320 CDI

Metzer is a German company.

This is a cheap preventative maintenance item to complete now in my opinion especially given the history of leak off lines in the W115s, W123s and W124s! Don't be stranded by a busted line.

The above affiliate link is to eBay and the new price is: $46.95 + $6.99 for shipping. I found installing Fuel Overflow Hose For my MERCEDES 2005 E320 CDI W211 was excellent preventative maintenance. Before the replacement, I had two huge leaks develop that left me stranded by roadside.

Here is the eBay affiliate link: eBay listing for Fuel Overflow Hose made in Germany
