Long story short I broke a plastic fuel line hose retaining clip the fitting and the retaining clip kind of look like this but its blue and not as tall. I need a replacement. Any ideas?

Help us help you. Make, model, year, engine, anything?
Most auto parts stores carry a pack with several different styles. I used a zip tie on the service truck I drove.
2005 mini cooper S
thats the supercharged engine.
The only way to get this part i found so far was to get the 300 dollar hose assembly.

Looks like #16116763763 vent pipe or #2 on this diagram? Expensive little bugger. Hopefully someone knows of an alternative

I have ran into this a few times and just bought the ends, some connectors and if needed some nylon fuel line. Napa has some in stock, ebay and Amazon have some. You can cobble something together its just a matter of getting the right parts, first figure out the size.
