## Discrepancy

(CAN) A HOSE ASSY (390A20D4.8) FROM A FUEL SUPPLY MANIFOLD WAS REMOVED AND ROUTED TO OUR INTERNAL OVERHAUL SHOP FOR REPLACEMENT OF THE HOSES. UPON DISASSEMBLY, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT ONE FITTING (AN212-20D) WAS CORRODED AND CRACKED LONGITUDINALLY ON ONE SIDE WHERE THE FIRE SLEEVE COVERS THE FITTING. IT WOULD APPEAR THAT THE FIRE SLEEVE TRAPPED MOISTURE AND THUS CORRODED THE FITTING.
