Leaking fuel.

I am not a car guy by any means. But I'm looking for a quick fix to last till I get a new car. I drive to my foremans yesterday to ride in the work truck. So I leave it parked in front of his neighbor's house all day. When I get to his house after work, I see it leaked a puddle of fuel. So he told me to stay home and fix it so his neighbor's don't ***** lol. The fuel is leaking from the driver's side and it's coming from somewhere high enough to leak on the tired as well. And questions or help would be greatly appreciated.

Could be any of the following things:
1. hose connected to Fuel Pressure regulator came off or split
2. Hose between fuel rails split and squirting fuel over towards tire
3. Hose(s) at or near the fuel filter came off or split and is shooting fuel everywhere.

Maybe someone will be kind enough to post engine bay pics pointing to these items, and more. In the meantime, open the hood and look around at all the hoses. You may know what you're looking at, but you can surely detect a split hose or one that came off and is dangling.
