Under the driver's side wheel well I have a fuel leak from both fuel lines. I was surprised to see two couplers or unions there. Both are rusted away and leaking. I just want to splice in some new line with couplers. Any idea what size those lines are? Measures around 1/4" OD, but I'm not certain if that means 6mm or 7mm or 1/4".

Reason: typo
I determined that the lines are 5/16 OD 3/16 ID. I replaced that section and then a far worse leak opened up on down the line. I am having trouble reading the diagram. Following 95 and 101 from the driver's front wheel well towards the rear wheel well, where do the two lines end up? One of them dead-ends into a loop into the filter. What about the other one? It looks like it ends up in the back of the fuel tank. I appreciate it.
Thanks again. For anyone stumbling on this thread, the OEM nylon section of the fuel line(s) is labeled with "Bundy/Warren 8mm x 1mm". The purge line dead ends at the bottom right connector on the back of the fuel tank. For both fuel lines, they are only steel from the front wheel to the rear wheel. The feed line transitions to nylon just before the fuel filter and the return line transitions to nylon just after the rear wheel.
