Anyone feeling helpful in McKinney/Plano/Frisco/allen area?

I really need to get my car back on the road, but i'm clueless when it comes to the fuel lines and stuff. I was seeing if someone who is familiar with fuel lines in the engine bay and hopefully familiar with FI can come help me diagnose what hose this leak is from, if it's a stock part or not, and just in general help me. Hydraulic jack would be a plus, but i can get one if needed. There's cash in it for you, lunch, beer whatever.

here's a thread for reference (pic in post#12) but for Cliffnotes:
I was driving, smelled fuel, saw fuel pressure gauge drop. Pulled into driveway, fuel everywhere from passenger side in the engine bay. next day, turn the pump on, and fuel squirts out of it. need to know what hose this is. ASAP.

Any help would be muuuuuch appreciated!

I looked through the factory manual and all I could come up with was that is the line coming from the fuel evaporator canister. Here is another thread with pics (although it is from a sedan). Its either a line going from the evaporator canister to the "EVAP canister purge volume control solenoid valve" or the "Evap canister vent control valve". That's my best guess. Let us know, that is the only place where I can think of where fuel might be leaking. That hose/connection point probably failed.

I also linked to a pdf file of the G35 fuel evap system straight from the factory manual.

yeah its located in the rear, but those lines run to the engine bay. Its going to be hard to picture in my head without looking under the hood myself so i'll take a look and let you know.

Here's a much easier pic to view and it really does look like its either part# 17335X or 18791N:
