Fuel Filter Housing

My Filter Housing cracked over the weekend and I need a replacement. The one i've got on there is a borrowed one lol. Stealership wants $100 bucks for a new one. Anyone have a spare they might be willing to sell for a decent price?

Right at the weephole? It looks like a tiny chunk came out of it.

I have a spare, make me an offer. It might be a few days before I can get it pulled and shipped, my back is not liking me for the wrenching I've been doing.

Is it possible to repair the crack using JB-weld? I think I have heard of that before as a temporary fix.

Fuel filter housing has a weep hole?

What part are you referring to that Ford wants $100? .. if it's the entire fuel bowl please PM me and I'll purchase whatever stock they have on hand and sell for a nice profit.

Needles to say I'm just kidding .. I think, unless that's the price you were quoted.

There is that funky little plug thats in the front (as it sits in the engine bay) of the FPR. I had a leak there when I pressure tested a rebuild last weekend. I'll take a pic of it just for fun.
