Where to get ink supply tubes for VJ-1324?

So I think I've narrowed down my problem to be with some of the ink supply tubes leaking air where they connect to the dampers on the head. I'm seeing some small air bubbles in the lines. I'd like to replace them but can't seem to find them or how to do it. They have a 90 degree bend in them and are tapered to fit the dampers so just a straight line won't fit.

No one? Does this mean I have to get a factory service guy to order factory tubes? Probably cost as much as a new printer!!

I just clip off about 3mm and put a new O-ring on. This should give you a good tight seal. VERY SELDOM do you need to replace the entire ink line.

Good Luck,

Joe

Thanks henryp for the pics. I just cant seem to find those parts anywhere. It also seems like its heated in place. Joe House I did try to clip a small amount off but then it doesn't fit quite right afterwards. You can see on #10 above that there is a slight taper right where it goes in to the cap and 0-ring. Also look at the black line below you can see the taper.
