Hi
Drove to my sons garage to change my speakers. On the way started smelling what i thought was exhaust.
It was a fuel leak, the return -6an line we installed in May of 2011. When we installed the Glenn performance 1000hp kit.
The leak is about 4ft from the tank, somewhere in the line. No obvious tears of marks.. Can i safely replace a couple of ft. Or should I replace from the tank past the leak, maybe 4ft???? or the whole line??
Close as we could tell near a clamp? won't know til we tear it apart.

How much alcohol were you running? If it was only E10, that stinks they would not include lines safe for common fuel. If you ran E85, PTFE should do it now.
