Gas lines

Hey all

I accidentally twisted my old fuel line on the truck and was forced to install a new one, unfortunately, to get it to fit, I have to loosen the fitting that goes into the bottom of the fuel pump, which caused it to leak something nasty. I got it tightend up, and put teflon tape on all the fittings. It doesn't drip anymore, but it is still always moist with gas underneith (leaking a little bit, but not too much at all) It doesn't matter if I rev the engine up to 5000 rpm, it doesn't spray out. Is this dangerous to run like this? I'm gonna go to Napa tonight to get some new intake gaskets and valve cover gaskets, should I get a new non-metal fuel line that runs from the pump to the carb?
