The fuel smell is probably leaking return (or Leak Off) pipes ;) I may be wrong, but that just looks like it should have a vac pipe in the end of it ;)

Whatever it is... I didn't do it

While I have owned the car there has never been a pipe to that little filter the previous owner had put the original fuel leak off pipe from the pump to the egr valve. He had put a leak off pipe from no1 and hid down the side of the pump  :-\

I've just had a look at mine. The small pipe is the same as yours, so a vent of some sort. The long one goes to a union on the top of the fuel pump underneath the air intake. The union faces aft at the top of the pump, and has two similar pipes connected. Sorry no pic, I've not got the hang of it yet. :y

the long l/off pipe on No1 goes to a nipple on the diesel pump . on the other end the very last nipple there is a blank. in time they do perish consequentley leaking fuel . this nipple is hard to see , but the leak off pipe from 5 to 6 is visible so on No6 the 2nd nipple nearest b/head has the blank. only a couple of quid for a pack of 20. (small bore type 3mm i think) the inline filter that your picture is showing has no relevance to the fuel system.

The pipe on your photo with the small in-line filter is the EGR vent pipe.
The fuel return from injector 1 is on the front top of the injector pump.
you can see in the last photo on the link the return and the black plug at the front of the pump as I hadn't fitted the bango bolt at this point.it just pushes on :y

Thanks for all the help I think I have now solved that problem (touch wood). My son set off to Uttoxeter this morning and as I haven't had a phone call I presume all's well :D
