marc, hopefully your gas smell problem is something simple like the gas cap gasket, but if not, and you do decide to replace the fuel line in the tunnel, I have a few tips. My '66 912 is completly stripped undergoing restoration in my garage, so it was probably a LOT easier for me than it will be for you with an assembled car, but I simply disconnected the rubber lines from the hard line in the tunnel, bent back the small metal clips that hold the line in place, and pulled it out from the rear. I replaced the line with 3/8 i.d. aluminum fuel line from JEG'S-it's cheap, light, and easy to form-you don't even need to use a tubing bender-just cut to fit with a hacksaw, bend to fit, and snake it through the tunnel from the rear towards the front. Good luck
