Default Fuel line fitting breakage - help required asap

Help needed asap. The main fuel line fitting coming from the tank Going to the engine has broken when I was replacing the fuel pump. A bit of the metal bend from the tank top piece has broken inside the fitting. Can these fittings be replaced easily? I need to try get it sorted asap as I have mapping booked for Tuesday morning!

Any ideas on how to get it fixed asap are welcome!

Looking for some more help on this. I have a new tank top plate ready to go in but the high pressure fuel line fitting was damaged so I have to try fit another one on. Anyone got any experience of this? The elbow fitting itself is pretty much the size of the OD of the black pipe, so its very hard to press it it! Very little room to work with too as I'm trying to fix it on the car.

Last resort for me would be to replace the whole fuel line but I want to avoid that if possible!
