Engine problem is most likely an air leak on the inlet side.
Gearbox problem is 'normal'.

If a fuel line was split enough to affect engine performance, you are very lucky you haven't incinerated the whole thing!

that's what I was thinking. check air boot that was fine all other plugs and leads were ok. fuel line had a small split in it were it's connected to injector rail. luck or what.
