brutal, something like this did happen to me.

The plastic fuel line between the fuel filter and the metal body side fuel line broke.

I've seen the lines that come from the fuel tank to the filter, as installed on my car. I have not seen them with the tank dropped.

Do the lines from the tank have metal inside? I cannot tell from your pics.

In my case, I went to napa and got a ford fuel line repair kit. There are two sizes, and let me go home and make sure I give you the correct size. It comes with a "barb" fitting to join two plastic fuel lines together. The metal I see in the pics above may be metal barb fittings from the factory.

I know that there was a barb fitting, which looks like a tapered cone with ridges on it, on the body sided fuel line. I.e. I pulled off the plastic flexi line and there was a barb fitting on the end of the metal fuel line attached to the body.

A bosch/industrial heat gun is needed to heat/expand plastic flexi fuel line. Use the high setting.

Standard fuel line will not hold 40psi of fuel for fuel injecton.

Make sure any fuel line you order is "fuel injection approved" and should look like a rubber hose with a plastic hose inside.

Murrays here in detroit had it cut to length.

And Napa has the repair kit which includes hose.

Try to help me understand your pics above so I can help you better.
