Hi Emmanuel
This is a known problem and can be fixed by using fuel resistant silicone hose
like Samco ProFuel.
You are already half way to the solution by using the alloy bend. The original
fit used an angled rubber hose which was identified as the source of fuel smells
and was also found to deteriorate quite badly.
There is a mod issued by the LAA in the UK - copy of the modification attached
and a picture of the finished assembly.
