944 fuel line

Hi I have a 1985 2.5 944 (not turbo) I've been trying to find a fuel line which fits from the fuel pump to the fuel filter, I have found a part number 944 356 041 07 which I believe is the correct one but cannot find anyone who supplies it. The nearest I've found is 951 356 041 07 which I am told is for the 944 turbo what is the difference and would this fit my car? Any help on this would be appreciated.

Thanks for the above comments, I have been to my local branch were they have removed the old bit of rubber pipe and fitted a new piece in its place. Will fit tomorrow and hopefully job sorted. Thanks again

Thanks that's something I will take a look at, whole I'm replacing fuel lines and filters (because the car had been stood for 2 years ) I will check the pump. Is this ok to do by applying a direct feed from a battery for a second or two as when I first turned the car over after replacing the DME relay I could not hear the pump? Even though the car ran for a very short time probably due to the age of the petrol.
