Leaking fuel line

I just spliced in a six-inch section of HIGH PRESSURE fuel line (I think they label it as intended for use as fuel injector supply line) a few inches ahead of that spot (down where the line turns upward toward the engine compartment) on our V8#1.  FLAPS sources usually also have the special hose clamps designed for use on HIGH PRESSURE fuel line.  Don't use any old fuel line or plain hose clamps.  I used a five-foot length of this same type of hose as the supply line on my 200q20v for a year before I finally got around to replacing it with steel.

crimp...a little leak first thing in the morning. That should be the in 
line to the filter.
Can I cut this portion out and replace with rubber line? Any 
suggestions regarding a repair?
Thanks.
