Not sure if this is normal, but I was working under the hood and happened to have my nose near the three gas lines coming out of the driver side shock tower, and the lines smelled like gas (though I had to be really close to them to smell the gas). The smell was more apparent toward the plastic tube that holds the lines in place (near the air filter box). Are these lines fragile? I did not see or notice any liquid. It is garaged and I don't smell any strong fuel odor while I'm in the garage. Only when I get close enough to the gas lines.

Is this normal (since gas does flow through them)? Or do I have a problem? Car runs great and there is no SES light at this time. Thanks!
