[Vwdiesel] injector to head leak

I have the yellow strip stuff as well, it only works
for return lines.  The strip is light yellow, could
look grey if going a bit color blind, but more on the
yellow side.
Not large enough to be a supply line, this particular
tubing seems to only work from injector to injector
and back to pump.
