I need to replace the fuel return line (injection pump to filter-original part number 23922) on my 1982 Model 50 Westerbeke. With many of the W50 engines being replaced, I'm hoping someone has access to this fuel line or knows where I could locate one. My current alternative is to make one. This is last part needed to reassemble the engine after rebuild of injector pump. Willing to purchase and pay to accelerate delivery if I can locate. Other wise, the engine just keeps "chugging along".

You might try Calcutt boats. The W50 is based off the BMC 1.8L and they had a large amount of spare parts. They were able to get me a timing cover when no one else had one. I gave them a call and they had some used parts too, super easy to deal with and great support.

Thanks for the "tip". Will give them a try. Sounds like a good option for future needs as well, since parts are becoming more difficult to find. Am hoping someone with access to an old engine would be willing to remove the line and ship to me by early next week at my cost. Meanwhile, I have located components to make a replacement. I can access the components in a couple of days, but would be more difficult and probably be more expensive than a salvage part. Fortunately, this is one of the fuel lines with easier bends!
