you can try to soften up the washers if you don't have extra by hitting them with a torch, good trick to use for proof of concept diag and you can replace them later. is there maybe a crack in the fitting that's leaking and not the gaskets?

Yeah, I can anneal them as stop-gap. And thinking about doing so.
I really hope the fitting isn’t cracked. They are long discontinued.
I’m just stepping away a bit to get som clarity.
if it is that fitting is it possible to change to more of a banjo bolt fitting or are you going to have to piece some more standard sized an fittings? I would hit the washers to anneal them, easy enough and quick process.
The fitting is a banjo style but it is a stud vs. a bolt. I have been thinking about the fitting. Since most VE4/6 Denso pumps are pretty much all very similar, I cross-referenced the fittings and there are a couple of different styles.... That said, I intuited that the gaskets are the same and they were so I went ahead and ordered one from a 1HZ and one from a 1KZ-T engine with rotary pumps. I can always modify the fittings to make a new one work.
at least theres a work around, is that the feed line from the tank into the ip and what kind of pressures are on that line im assuming lower pressure
Yes, it’s the inlet. Come from fuel filter which has line feeding it from tank.
It’s definitely low pressure.

Love the shift knob!! We rarely approve of non-OE but...
