Not true. The flare tube fittings you're seeing on the
right side injectors are most likely what you'd find
if you *carefully* cut off the metal grommet on the
left side injectors that's attached to the worn fuel
hose.

If you cut that grommet off, you'll see you can easily
take off the hose and the tube underneath will be
flared so you can attach new hose & clamp it on...
Good as new...
