It's hard to see but it's under the cover,its not coming from the fuel line I don't see,it's dripping from the bracket,seems as if it's coming from inside the car,under back seat,didn't get to pull back seat out

This might help as well

You will need to remove the back seat bottom and remove the access panel under the seat. It's not to difficult. Could be the hose coming off of the top of the pump or could be a rusted out hard line. There is a fuel feed and return hose and hard lines in that area.

Looks like the lines have been replaced,the pic with the wreach is on the compression fittings for both lines,where the wrench is on the line thats how far back they are new,i thought the fiytings might be leaking but they are not,its coming from wjere the line binds up into the car,the lines look ok,WHAT KIND OF LINE IS UNDER THE SEAT,WHAT LINE SHOULD I BUY TO REPLACE,IS IT CLIPPED ON U WONDER IF THE CLIP BROKE

You gotta find out what's leaking exactly before you can buy parts to fix it.

You took that out of context,it was a question,but I'll just look it up in the manual thanx all

I say this because if their are unions and new line going towards the top of the tank, that means someone has been in there doing repairs and not using factory parts. Which means there is no telling what they did up there without removing the fuel pump access panel and having a look.
