Has anyone removed that mess of fuel pipes thats in the boot above the right wheel behind the metal cover?

I think mine are leaking, and would like to have a look.

Does any one have instructions or tips/tricks?

Thanks

what type car?

all modern cars have vapour return like AFAIK. it works in conjunction with the charcoal canister etc...
the vapour line is the pipe to goes up to near the filler, the other "mess" of pipes is the vapor re-circling system with the fuel tank i reckon....

what leads you to think its leaking?

smell of fuel in boot, and worsened fuel economy.
