The only line that I think you could be talking about would be the vacuum line to the FPR and this should not cause a leak. The Carrera fuel lines are notorious for aging, leaking, and then starting catastrophic engine fires. I would do a search for this. It probably means that you need to replace all of your fuel lines on the engine.

That means the rubber diaphragm in the FPR has ruptured and the FPR will need to be replaced. Replace all of the rubber fuel lines while you are replacing the FPR and also replace the pressure damper (looks like an FPR) on the other fuel rail at the same time.
