Take some pics of the part. Put it in paint and put arrows to point exactly where it is leaking. That would be the most helpful for us to answer youw question.

Where it is leaking is to the right where the alum line comes in.

Ink do you understand that the fuel line is held in by an expanding ring. You must use a special tool to remove it. The dealer has the gasket or you can get one at the Ford stealership too. The new regulators also come with a new gasket. It has been my experience that once they start leaking the gasket is a short term fix that you will shortly need to replace the regulator. HTH

you can get an injector o-ring kit from the dealer and it has an extra o-ring for that line

It seems that I can just pull the line out. That is what is causing the leak it just move left and right and I've pulled it out far enough to see the gasket. In one of the posts it says I need a special tool. To me it seems like I could just pull the old one out and slip the new one in. Is this correct?

yup, pull the line out and replace the o-ring and the plastic clip that holds it in.

Anybody have a link as to where I can get that part? I've looked all over no luck.
i got my fuel line quick disconnects from the dealer for about $10 when i put in new injectors. you may be able to just replace the oring, but i heard that it is best to replace the whole fitting.
i didnt need a special tool for the ones on my 89, IIRC, i just squeazed(sp?) and pulled.
i believe napa also carries fuel line quick disconnects.
