Fuel line repair? 200 1984


The fuel line on the '84 244GL has just cracked right before the fitting to the fuel rail and is spewing fuel. I limped the car home and now I am wondering how to proceed!

I know the system is pressurized. Is this an easy DIY / driveway replacement? I would pull the fuse and take off the tank cap. The fitting to the fuel rail looks obvious but how does it connect to the metal line beneath the bulkhead? As it is pressurized is there any chance of wrapping and clamping the line where it's cracked (as a temp solution?) or would I be wasting my time to try?

Any info appreciated. Thanks in advance.
