you mean its not coming from an actual hose that comes from the firewall to the engine??? there are 3 rubber sections on top of the engine. . . AND the fuel pulsation damper. odds are (if im reading your post right), you have a bad hose under the intake manifold. . . on top of the engine. youll have to take the TB, UIM, RATS NEST, COILS, and some other odds and ends (depending on your setup) to get to them. . . good luck. . .

if your fuel pressure damper thingy is busted it maybe shooting things all over the place...have you popped off your UIM and primed your fuel system (grnd and ten in the diag box)
and sat there looking for leaks?????

Also what i would do is get some white tissue and wrap/cover the lines (rubber and metal) and prime your system...count to 5..then turn it off..look for wetspots.....if its coming out even quicker...do it for less time

I know that the FD had some type of recall on the fuel thingy......Could it be that?

Well Guys I Did Fpd Upgrad To A New One And I Didnt Smell Gas On The Pass Side Like I Did When I Changed It Out This Is Totally Crazy To Me, I Thought That It Could Have Beent He Hose Thats Going Or Comming From The Fuel Filter But Its Not Unless There Isa Small Whole Or Something
But Its Dripping From The Side Were The Tree Are I Was Wondering If It Could Travel From The Fpd Side Allthe Way Over There
Ill Try The Tissue Thing

You upgraded the clamps? I believe the oem ones are made to withstand pressure changes in the hoses. Similar to the coolant hoses

tt2323 has a point. The factory clamps are steady pressure clamps designed to maintain constant pressure over the life of the fuel line. With time, the clamp compresses the actual diameter of the hose. Without a constant pressure clamp that will adjust to this occurrence, the fit does not remain tight and your fuel lines will begin to leak. And this can happen within just weeks of installing "beter clamps". Keep in mind that your fuel lines swell and shrink every time you start and stop your car.
