Leaking fuel - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I noticed that my truck is leaking fuel. It is coming from the hard line that is on the frame rail. Old and rusty is my guess. I have replaced the rubber lines around a year ago.

I see that classic industries sells steel for $50 and stainless for $90. It looks like the line is 5/16 and a little over 72" long. I checked at a few local auto parts store and could only find lines 69" with flared ends. One of the stores said they could get a 25' coil/roll/spool.

My truck is rusty and has lots of holes in it so it really matches the vehicle but I do not think it is safe to drive it this way

What have other people used to replace theirs?
