New to the Forum could use help w/ Rx8

Hey guys, so iv had my 06 Rx8 for 3 years now and in 2012 the engine went out and luckily there was a recall for them which got me a replacement for free. Everyone knows how dealerships are they still ended up charging me a little over $1000 for mounts and new hoses. Not my issue just thought i had mention it but what I really need help with is the discharge hose on the fuel pump. I have had a bad gas smell issue for sometime I removed the seat and panel to get to fuel pump and noticed that the hose leaks real bad when my car is on right at the discharge outlet. Money is kinda of an issue at the moment what would be my best solution?
Thank You

Dont drive it like that first.

You need to check if its the hose or the nipple it connects to. Im sure you could by either for 50-100 dollars off of a part out here.

Never ever drive the car with any kind of fuel leak. Simply not worth the risk.
