Jason, if you can get it up on a lift it would be easier to check the lines. Start at the tank - the hoses come from the top so you really can't see the connections but you can feel around them for moisture and look for wet areas on the tank and cover. Just as Andy said - check the line connectors going to the fuel filter canaster and the connections up front in the engine compartment. Also look at the entire line run front to back. These cars are getting long in the tooth and the lines have been exposed to weather/elements/damage by contact etc. etc.

Check it close - a potential fire situation is something you don't need. Good luck and let us know what you find.
