Fuel filter leak

car has been smelly for a few months now and I discovered this. I wonder if its leaking from that blue line's connector or if its leaking from the housing and tank gasket? does this kit include what I would need to fix it if its leaking from the blue line connector? https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/min...st-11252754870

thanks.

hopefully its not the o-rings in the housing lid, cause those I don't think can be bought. requires buying a whole housing.

If you are messing with it might as well do the filter. I would get the tool also.
