1959 MF 65 Perkins fuel lines and other parts

Hi I recently bought a 1959 MF 65 with a Perkins and am interested in buying up a few items.
FIRST, I am looking for a replacement fuel line that goes from the secondary filter housing to the front of the injector pump. My parts manual gives me a part # 892319m91. Now I have a question. My parts book shows both filter setups and both setups show the same line but both show it with a standard pressure screw in line going into the filter housing. My setup has banjo style bolt fittings on both lines going into the secondary filter housing. What I mean is the lines have loops and a banjo bolt (bolt open in the middle) with copper washers on both sides of the line. The drawings show the lines have a nut with a flare end on the line to attach to the filter housing. Could just be a mess up of the drawings but wanted to ask other MF gurus on here.

Second, I am looking for a replacement hood emblem for the later model 65 hood. The plastic version that covers the whole hood opening.

Third, I am looking for the screen and hold down for the oil bath breather opening. Mine is missing.

Please let me know what you have with pics and how much. I searched on here and found two members who in another thread that said they had the fuel line I need but I am not familiar with the site and dont know how to send them a message. Hopefully they see this and email me. Thank you to everyone:)

No one really? I am also looking for a good diesel fuel tank. I need the early shorter version. The one made so the power steering resevour will fit between it and the radiator. I know there are guys out there with parts tractors. C'mon fellas:)

I make new fuel lines from steel brake lines, just measure the od of the line wich is probably going to be 1/4"od. I re-use the nuts on the ends which you should be able to do for the first line with the part number 892319M91.

The online parts book shows these two for your second question.
 

Sadly that part number for the line isnt correct. Early Perkins tractors use banjo style fittings from the secondary filter to the injector pump. The part number in my parts book isnt correct. For some reason the one listed in my parts book shows it with a brake line style fittings on the secondary filter.

For the emblem its not available anywhere. Its not the one sold by Steiners or on this website. Its the whole assembly piece with the screen made into it. That one is hard to come by. Its not original to my 1959 model year but I bought a real nice later model hood for this tractor.

For the hood emblem you are probably going to have to find that one used, and they can be hard to find.

For the screen, and hold down you are probably going to have to find those used also.

These tractors are nice to have, and still work great, but some for them parts are getting harder to find.
 

Yes thats what my parts shows as well but they are wrong. Both of my lines are banjo style. Meaning where they go into the secondary filter housing they have a round loop and a hollow bolts with two copper washers attach the lines to the top of the housing. Not sure why my lines are like this. Any ideas?
 
The later model hood emblem threw me off of the fact it's a 1959 year model tractor you have. One the fuel line you need is it leaking near the banjo fittings? If the leak in the middle somewhere you can just cut the line, and use a piece of rubber line that is resistant to diesel. That 1959 year model fuel line will probably only be found used. Like I said some of the parts are just pretty hard to find theese days.
 

I believe I have it repaired. At some point for some reason some one cut the line about 5" down to close to the first bend. They put a compression fitting and it was cracked. I replaced it today but found my fuel tank is cracked and leaking where the two front bolts attach. :(.
 

Do you have the matching part #'s for that breakdown? I would love to print off both and put in my parts book.

Also I thought 1958 was the first year for 65's?
