    There are 3 things on that rack.

    Fuel pump for a 93 would be 867 906 091
    Fuel accumulator (which is a type of resorvoir) is 853 133 441 (The same for all year US Foxes)
    Fuel filter for a 93 is 1H0 201 511 A

    Is your accumulator leaking? (nice, I didn't know they were the same for cis and digifant or that digifant even had one)

    To my knowledge, that part is no longer available? Might be thinking about the accumulator for a different vw though. I do know those hoses are tough to find, and I need to change all of them.
    I really suck at smog.

    my dad replaced all hoses down there with regular gas line to save the hassle of looking the parts down and its not the hoses thats leaking on the top of i guess the fuel Accumulator theres a plastic 90 degree elbow on the top of it where one of main lines connects to and the fuel is seeping from the plastic

    This accumulator, which is designed to keep pressure in the system, can be found on 16v Scirocco and some Audis.

    If what you are calling the "accumulator" is that plastic thing on top in the first pic, it is still available new. It is not an accumulator. It is listed as a fuel filter on most part sites but what it really is a fuel reservoir. The pre-pump pumps into this to keep a fuel feed for the main pump.

    The accumulator is only on CIS cars and looks like this



    The part # for the "filter/reservoir" is 533 201 511 A


    AutohausAZ.com has it on backorder

    1stvwparts.com lists it for under $20 + shipping

    These were the first 2 places I checked

    Hope this helps
    If you were a Volkswagen....who would your owner be?
