I am having a leak from the fuel line pictured. Coming out of the top of the nut. Does anyone have any idea where I can get a replacement fuel line. Looked all over the internet, but haven't had any luck. Any input would be appreciated.

I'd guess some PO replaced the metal fuel line with fuel hose. You can get a bard fitting or make/buy a metal tube to fix your bad one.
Have you inspected the inside of the nut/flare and the fitting - maybe its just loose or there is crud causing the leak.

Did you try to snug it up?
There is supposed to be a ferrule compression fitting under that nut. What does your look like? You can try to loosen tighten, loosent ighten, to get it so seat if the proper ferrule is in there.

Yes
More likely flare in tube like oem; should tighten up, squish flare more and stop.
I run one of those cheap like $10 electric diode fuel pump - they last me about 10 years (I carry a spare) Really expensive ones last 5. Fuel pump block off plate eliminated the oil leak. Not a purest.

The compression fitting is under the nut, I will take a picture of it.

Often reffered to as the olive.
Yes, thank you! I forgot that.

You could try to just shorten it a touch.
Its possible the line is broken where the olive pinched it.

Do I need to cut the old olive off the line and install new one? I think spector carries the fitting and nut
Get the british standard pipe tap barbed nipple that fits pump and carb - eliminate all the extra hose clamps and fittings. Buy a section of fuel hose to go from the carb to the pump. I buy rolls of USA fuel hose off ebay 5/16 x 25' for $32 delivered
