Default Dumb Fuel line question....

My rear fuel line is leaking (pissing right onto the exhaust, yay). I need to replace it, i was going to buy the part, then install it, but I cannot find "return fuel line" in any searches, that are not just generic hoses. Do I need to take it off and get one built or am I just not searching for the right thing?
89 4.0 auto.

and any tips before doing the work are appreciated. I've done things like the fuel injectors, and even the fuel pump, but obviously I've never had to replace a rubber fuel line yet on my jeep.

When you say "rear" do you mean the one by the firewall? If so, that's the supply. The return is the one connected to the regulator.

Have a look here:

Ah, I had that backwards, yes the one by the firewall, Thanks for the link! I'll take a look.

It's the rubber part right where it goes into the fuel rail, not the hardline.
