Default Fuel Line Spacer (with pic)

I am looking for the plastic spacer that goes between the two o rings in this diagram. Is this something that can be picked up at an end cap at Autozone? Thanks!

Ok so went to the JY today. They cut the fuel lines out and toss them so virtually impossible to get them via that route. I snagged the spacer from a transmission on another XJ just in case it would fit, and it was too large obviously.

5/16 is the fuel line closest to the firewall?

And does anyone sell just the spacer separately? That's the part I need. I've got a buttload of O rings.

Doesn't appear to be the case, just splurge on a repair kit.

And splurge I did. Just drives me nuts when something that should cost $0.01 at any hardware store is so elusive. I like my rig to be as field serviceable as possible, not requiring parts that have shipping times to factor in.

Thanks for the help bros!

I guess this is something I should scrounge from my part-outs.
