'97 Fuel Leak at Fuel Rail Connector

I have a very slight fuel leak where the fuel rail meets the plastic connector and plastic line on top of the engine. It is leaking through the seal at the connector. Is there a way to splice on to the plastic line with a piece of high pressure fuel line? I could then clamp on to the rail. I would rather avoid replacing the entire run of plastic fuel line if possible. Or, maybe the connector can be clamped to eliminate the drip. Thanks for any ideas.

How about replacing the seal on the fitting?

The seal doesn't look like it can be replaced. That would be great if it can be though. It looks like a flat seal rather than an o-ring type and it appears to be part of the clip on end piece. I did a search and it sounds like Autozone has some sort of a kit for replacing the clip end piece for plastic fuel lines.
