Question help! Fuel filter problem

Hello
I have a 1992 ford e150 conversion van has a 302 v8. I was trying to replace fuel filter and the hose from the tank came off fine but the one going to the engine did not come off easy when it finally did the metal piece(bracket that sits inside fuel line came out with it pretty bent up. Can anyone tell me if i can buy the little bracket or do i have to buy whole new fuel line thanks for any help i am stuck in my driveway. I was going to try to bend it back into shape but i am afraid messing with fuel line it might not hold
Thanks
Mike

I think those are replaceable. There is a special tool for removing them also. Is it the little round metal inserts with a bunch of tiny fingers? If so, what you are looking for are Ford part # E9UZ-9B307-A or -B. One is slightly bigger than the other. Any Ford or L-M dealer should have them in stock and they are not real expensive.
