Default Fuel Line Question - FPR Replacement

I replaced the FPR on my wife's 2004 S40 (earlier model) and all was well until she reported smelling gas from the inside. A little freaked out, I told her to pull over and I picked her up.

When I looked under the hood the next day, it looks like the fuel line that connects to the top of the FPR wasn't seated properly. There was a little green plastic clip that broke off when I pulled the line out to inspect.

What part do I need to fix? Can I just buy the clip? Do I have to replace the whole line?

TIA, trying to avoid a trip to the dealership.

Does the car have a 4-cylinder or 5-cylinder engine? Also, turbo or non-turbo?

Thanks for responding. It's an earlier generation of the S40, so 4 Cylinder 1.9L Turbo.

Here is the area in question. Note that I can move the black piece closer/farther from the FPR. There used to be a green clip that sat between the 2.
