Fuel line
If it doesn't leak, you're fine.
Inspect it routinely.
DO NOT ignore any smell of leaked gasoline.
NOTE:
Years ago I had similar problems with ancient, fragile fuel lines.
NAPA (a parts store in the US) had repair kits which featured couplings attached to 18" (45cm) lengths of tubing.
The kits came in 2 sizes, 5/16" and 3/8". NAPA might still make them as they are handy.

I believe these 4.0 SOHC engines run on 65-75 psi of fuel pressure. That's a lot of pressure for a clamp, but as long as there's no leaking fuel you should be fine and as already noted, do not ignore any smell of gasoline.
