fuel tank leak!

OK so I picked up a gas leak some how. Saw it was coming from some were on top of the tank. So when I got to drop I did not notice the hard line connection at the top, and ended up breaking it.. can anyone point me in the right direction to buy the replacement parts...I'm so pissed at myself for breaking it..

If the broken lines are the hard lines going into the fuel pump bracket you might need to get the whole assembly from the dealer. Alternately you might be able to braze new tubing into the plate. On my '88 I had to have the tubes moved (so the bolt holes would work out on my new fuel tank) and a friend was able to braze them for me. I looked at dealer parts and it wasn't cheap.

Its a dealer part only? I can't pick it up at auto zone or something? I would prefer to put flexible lines if possible...

Take a look at the picture and have a stab at identifying the fuel line:




I'm suspecting that it's that top solid line. I don't see why you couldn't go in with flex line there, but I'm also not entirely sure it would be a good idea.
