Default PLEASE HELP QUICKLY petrol pipes at rear corroded

Smelt fuel at rear of car and looked underneath there is 3 metal pipes that enter the car under rear seat one end and the other end dissapears over the top of the tank. the thickest pipe has split and needs replacing but it looks like a very big job to replace so my question is, i presume these 3 pipes go over the tank to the fuel pump so could i take them off at the pump side then run them direct from the pump using high presuure fuel hose to the section where they enter the car under the passanger side back seat,

Any help would be appreciated as i have to do this job 2morrow,

Follow them back get the right size hose and re do.

might be worth cutting a small piece so you can get motor factors to size it right

all sorted now rerouted direct from fuel pump to the pipes in the back of the car under the back seat passanger side very tidy and very efficient done using high pressure petrol hose and some good strong pipe clips tested and works well.
