The O ring is what seals the fitting, so im not sure why the split has an effect.
Either way id buy a new one, 3 bar should be plenty for a 2.7 with M50 injectors, I avoid adjustable regs A- because they are not needed and B- have been known to leak and cause fires

The plastic washer above the rubber o ring with the split, think under pressure it's not pushing on the seal underneath.
Found a 3.5 bar fpr, bosch.
Matches injectors
