The hose from the front tank (behind the headlight) to the engine compartment typically runs from a nipple inside the front left fender, down behind the gas tank, and connects to a metal tube inside the tunnel. At the rear of the tunnel, another hose is connected that feeds up into the engine compartment. You may have to do a little "getting under there" to see if the hose connections at each end of the tunnel are secure. As far as the engine compartment goes, a flashlight and mirror will probably be all you need.
