Cool 1988 Gxl na gas pissing under upper intake manifold (stock)

Hey rx7 club I'm very new to all of this rotary stuff and I bought the car about a month ago, it has been sitting I've been doing research on how to fix this but I have no clue what's going on, car starts and runs perfectly fine 99% stock besides theme air filter and fuel pump, it's in great condition and was garaged by last owner, starts up with 205,000 on the odomiter fine but once it starts somewhere under the upper intake manifold the engine latterly looks like its pissing gasoline everywhere. I just replaced a hose that had a crack on it, going to the secondary injector, cause it was spraying now I'm haveing a leak coming from somewhere in the middle of the engine what should I do? I can post a video. Some one please help me or throw any advice I could use it thank you!

#1..do not USE the car..do not START the car.
#2.take off the upper intake and look closer for the leak.
Try the most obvious part..The Pulsation dampener( looks like a bell with a screw on it..on the fuel rail).

You can pressurize the fuel sytem with the check connector located by the Air box,or AFM.it is a two wire rubber encased connector.,With key ON (not running) you jumper that connector with a paperclip and it provides power to the pump to give you fuel.
This will help you locate the leak.
