are the lines in the tunnel leaking? In order to replace those you have to lower the trans partially to access the lines at the engine end.
how about a bit more info on what you're doing exactly.

I've done this. My engine & trans. were pulled at the time and I replaced the fuel lines w/AN hose & fittings. Here's some places to start reading:

How hard is it to change the fuel lines?

Fuel lines in Tunnel?

Pic of center floor/tunnel section?

There are other links w/in some of those threads.

obviousley don't use the car till this leak is fixed & all of the lines are either inspected or replaced.
Keep us posted and good luck!
