Fuel Leak

I found a leak on my 95 where the fuel lines meet the hard lines that come up from the tank. The leak is along side the transmission. I tightened the hose clamps and wiped everything off. I plan to go back later in the week to see exactly where it's coming from. It may be leaking where the hard line meets the stainless braided line but I'm not sure.

So I wanted to know what everyone is doing for replacement fuel lines? If it is in fact the stainless line leaking, I will have to figure out what to do with that.
Thanks.
