My 95 200sx was recently in an "accident" the
other day, actually some idiot in a SEMI cut me
off on the highway and had to go over onto the
median.  Well it was pretty rough terrain and the
underside got scraped up pretty badly.  I was
able to get home alright, but after checking
things out, there's a fuel odor and found that
one of my metal fuel lines has a small leak.
Unfortunately this line runs from the tank all
the way to the engine compartment and then
connects to a rubber hose.

I'm wondering how much do you think it would be
to get the metal line replaced?  I don't think it
would be too easy to replace without access to a
lift.  (which I don't have)  Also are there any
parts I should remove before having it towed to
the shop to keep the labor costs down?
