Somewhere before I owned my bus someone fabricated a piece of metal hose (possibly brass or copper?) welded to a small tab. The tab has a hole in it for a screw and it is screwed to the firewall. The rubber fuel line attaches to each side of the metal line on each side of the firewall. I believe this set up replaced the problematic plastic piece that carries fuel through the firewall. Works great so far. It seems to me merely passing a rubber hose through the hole in the firewall would lead to the rubber line being severed by constantly rubbing against the metal firewall.
