Arrrgh, Matt.

If you looked under the car in the rear fenderwell, you would have found a compression fitting on that hose attaching it to the steel line that runs under the car. That's the proper way to take it off, then feed the whole line up through the hole in the trunk.

For what it's worth, I cut my first one off too. NAPA has a good match in size but you'll have to undo that fitting under the car so you can make up a new line. The ends are barbed so a couple of hose clamps will do ya. I got the priciest high pressure fuel line they had, which set me back about five bucks IIRC.
