I went through this many years ago.  IIRC, the inlet pipe is standard size
tubing, but the compression fitting is about twice the length of what you
can find at your local hardware store.  A kind lister from UK recognized it
as a British market gas plumbing part and sent me a few of them.  Before
installation, they look like short sections of copper tubing that just fit
over the fuel line.  Contact me off line and I'll see if I have spares in
the shop.
