Chigh-pressure fuel line
Dlow-pressure fuel line
AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) high-pressure fuel line. In a slow-speed diesel engine, the part labeled "E" in the illustration MO-0003 represents the high-pressure fuel line. This line carries the high-pressure fuel from the fuel injection pump to the fuel injectors, which is a critical component in the diesel engine's fuel delivery system. The other answer choices are incorrect because: A) The high-pressure lube oil line is typically labeled with a different letter. B) The low-pressure lube oil line is a separate component from the high-pressure fuel line. D) The low-pressure fuel line is a different part of the fuel system and is not the component labeled "E" in the illustration.
