Steel Fuel Line(s) Leaking...

I am 99% sure that I have at least one steel fuel line leaking directly above the rear axle carrier. I only had time to briefly look at it today, and will look at it in more detail tomorrow. I could see the lines were corroded right at the point where they bend above the carrier (there is a rubber fitting, similar to a plug wire separator at the same point). I will add a pic in an edit tomorrow. So what is my best option?
  1. Use rubber fuel line to replace the 4" or so of corroded line (as others I found searching did)
  2. Replace all steel lines, ordered from ???
  3. Buy a roll of ?mm line, steel?, aluminum? then bend it and replace fittings?
