I've sprung a leak in the fuel line that supplies the fuel rail on the corsa. Does anyone know the name of or part number of the bit of pipe/ hosing I need? Or where it goes back to, I couldn't see the other end of it earlier having a quick look.

theres a few bits of pipe that supply the rail (around 3 or 4) coming from the tank.

Bastard, meant to say it's the bit that joins directly onto the fuel rail - it screws onto an olive fitting, there's a bit of braided hose that comes from that and it goes into a crimped blue plastic hose. So it's the bit that runs behind the head in the engine bay.

It's the feed Nicolai. It's got a pin hole in it in the blue hosing just behind the throttle body, just before the braided hose that the union is on.
