Don't forget the rubber hose that goes from tank strainer to the long under-body hard line. That is also a point where the rubber deteriorates and leaks. You can cut the clamp off of the strainer end and reveal a hose barb. Slip a piece of fuel line over that with a clamp, and you have a rebuilt line ready to screw back in the strainer.

The fuel thermostat is a big place for leaks. I just removed mine altogether. I just don't need it down here, but it really cleans up the fuel flow into the lift pump. Just one line from hard line to lift pump with a prefilter inline. Mine was leaking badly and I decided just to not rebuild it. There's an boring inside that leaks. It's simple to replace if you find that to be your problem.
