Fuel Leak..
I started the car for a bath and smelled a strong fuel odor. Looked under the car and it was leaking petrol like crazy. It seemd to be coming from the fuel tank area in the rear. Popped the access to the fuel pump off and discovered this.
You can see the damage on the fuel line just before it curves to the left.
A closer picture.
I am assuming a creature chewed through the line.... Looks like I am going to be replacing the fuel line. Anyone have experience with this?
What part# is it here?

Update, as I was removing the exhaust I saw a small mouse run across the ground and jump into my engine bay... Found the enemy. I have set poison and traps around the car.

Couple updates. Got the part in today, it was only 42 dollars. I am wrapping up the job currently. I put poison out in the engine bay, in the cabin, and at the fuel pump. The fuel pump poison has been eaten. The car sits for 5-7 days at a time usually sometimes more. I have considered selling it, I have 2 kids under 2 and a company car, it just sits currently. We will see.
