"I agree.  But an excellent "grommet" is a circle of slit fuel hose; it's
better than any rubber grommet sold, and custom fit for the application!"

I used the same approach but for a different application on the van.  I
noticed that the plastic hydraulic line to the clutch slave was close to the
transmission.

I added slit fuel hose held with zip ties now no worries!
