This is a part of the Bijur lubrication system. The tubing is really
tiny, maybe 1/8" OD. It is used to deliver oil to the head.

When disconnecting the head, I may have pulled the tube too hard and
that's the result. It tore off.

What sort of connectors are used in those and how would I fix it once
I get it home?

Looks like the tubing might slide over that nipple , nut compresses it on
the nipple .
Or it might need a plastic compression sleeve . What kind of pressure is on
those one-shot's ? Couple of psi maybe ?



Actually..its close to 100 or more pounds.
