If the quick disconnect is missing, better to replace the entire fuel line. They don’t sell those clips, it’s the same with Ford. Sucks I know, but the fuel lines aren’t seriously expensive or anything at least. Also will prevent your car from burning to a crisp. If you are rebuilding the engine anyways you should invest in new fuel lines. I think this is how some forum members lost their cars.

Ok. I appreciate the reply. I’ll start looking for the lines.

Hey All, I am bumping this old thread as I also managed to misplace this blue connector clip. This is for the EVAP line I believe as it connects the upper intake manifold part (plastic to a line that goes towards the back of the car (to the fuel evap system I assume).

Since it seems that this type of connector/clip is not available any longer (other than buying the whole line from Mazda with both connectors) ...what are people replacing those connectors/lines with? I know the diameter of the hard line that this connector connects to is different than the duel line (red clip)

Here is one end of the line I am talking about (it's under the intake manifold:
