Finally got the truck on the road and after driving 12 miles I smelled fuel when I got out. I used my nose to find these leaking connectors. What are they called and how do I replace them!

That's pretty nasty looking. I would not bother trying to fix those fuel lines and just replace them instead. You can buy the ends, they're just called Ford push lock connectors. Probably easiest to use high pressure rated rubber fuel hose.

You could also check around where ever you live and see if the parts store can make braided stainless fuel lines for you. NAPA here can do some of that stuff and we have a bearing supply place that will do them too.

The mechanic had no idea on how to replace the lines!

Dorman part # 800-130 and 800-131 is the male part of the fittings to adapt to rubber hose
