I noticed that the hose connecting the sections of the fuel rail was starting to crack. The previous owner had replaced the injectors although I wasn't sure about the seals so I used this as an opportunity to inspect, clean up and replace the rubber on the fuel delivery components in the engine bay.
Removal of the components was pretty straightforward, although it is noteworthy that care must be taken with the fuel rail so that you don't bend or otherwise damage the tubing. OE fuel rails aren't impossible to find although they aren't exactly inexpensive. Each side of the fuel rail is removed after loosening the hose clamps on the rails and injectors then gently pulling the rail away from the injectors while pivoting the rail at the hose connecting the rails. There are a lot of wires and other hoses that might be in the way, so remove what you can and work around what you don't.
After testing the injectors I returned them along with new injector seals. New injector clamps were used on all hoses since this part of the system is pressurized. Since these hoses and tubes are very visible this work made the engine bay look so much better!
