Hey guys, I've got an MK1 punto...

Recently i've noticed some petrol leaking from what looks like some sort of filter or something. It looks like a tin can with two funnels either end of it and it connects the valve from the fuel pump to the valve going to the engine. I cant see it being a fuel filter as all it seems to do is pressurise, so to be honest I dont know what it does or is..

However, I've established what the problem is exactly. There are a couple of very small holes in it, so small I can't see them but can see two strips of fuel spraying out them when the ignition is on/car is running.

Anyone got any idea where I could find a replacement or how i could fix it? Jus need some sort of metal replacement or something like that?

Cheers guys, sorry for sounding so 'bland'
