looking at the corrosion on it ..and probably severe inside the support bracket ..i would say yes, it needs replacing.

Can't remember if the pipe 8mm or 10mm you can cut through the pipe and put this type of straight (8mm or 10mm)plumbing fitting in but like metalwonker mentioned it looks rotten, think that's the low pressure side so you maybe get away with rubber fuel pipe of appropriate bore and a couple of decent hose clips

Had another look and it's the high pressure pipe so heat shrink would burst and fuel hose and hose clamps wouldn't do either as there's to much pressure
Plumbing joint straight coupler in picture or change pipe am afraid mate,

Hi,

If the power steering pipe on your Ford Transit 85 T280M FWD Euro 4 is damaged, it is generally recommended to replace it rather than attempt a quick fix. Power steering systems operate under high pressure, and a compromised pipe can lead to leaks, loss of steering assistance, and potential safety hazards. While temporary repairs might be possible with sealants or tape, they are not reliable or safe in the long term. It is best to consult a mechanic and have the damaged pipe replaced to ensure the system's integrity and your safety.

Jack ;)
