Help! Rodent damage fuel line.

Well all packed up for a 4th of July camping trip with grand kids. Horrible gas smell from the back of my 2018 Redhawk 31xl. Got underneath with the engine running and fuel was pouring out of the fuel line elbow on top of the fuel tank.

What is the best path forward? Tank is full. Don’t see getting to this with the tank in. Assume it will need to be towed or mobile RV work.

Any ideas?

I had a squirrel chew through that gas line last year. I obtained a replacement gas line segment through Ford. The ends of that line actually are quick-disconnect type fittings, but you really have to study how they work and have good access to the top of the tank to accomplish the task. Once you learn the trick and get the old disconnect off, the new one just snaps into place. Good Luck!
