Yes, look like in order to fix this leak this job would have to be done and since I have no confidence in anyone else I would have to do it myself.

@mhyn Have you done a fuel quantity valve on a Cascadia 113? The engine is 'shoved' about a foot into the cowling vs a Cascadia 125 making access to the valve and fuel lines very difficult, I'm thinking it may be better to remove the fuel filter housing.

ast26909, spsauerland and PE_T Thank this.

My oil filt-hous needs replacing per mechanic, also will be Tuesday before he hears from F.L. on when they can get him one. Long post-short I’m looking at getting one online somewhere or finding one myself - used obviously. So my question is are there other years I can get this part from? Mine is ‘14 Cascadia dd15. Because if there is I’m gonna go get the part myself because this particular mechanic doesn’t seem very motivated. Understandably so being Fri leading into a holiday, but I am highly motivated and need my truck running 5days ago. Any help would be great. I’ve found a part # that I believe might be it but if it’s not, again correct me.

You need to start calling every Freightliner Dealer, every DD Dealer. Get the proper part # along the way. Search the Internet using part#. Why does it need replacing? Cracked? How did it get cracked? Maybe get it welded? Good Luck waiting on Freightliner. They’re backed up on everything. Might get lucky and find one in stock. Junkyards? IDK, they rarely sell accessory parts off engines.
