If you had a digital camera I could tell you for sure.
being I cant see it, I will asume that the orange tube has hardened and cracked. I think it should have been soft and clear.
most hard wear stores carry that type of tubing, so dose most boat repair shops. its a common problem. also a cheep fix. less than a bucks worth of hose will do the job and if you keep the left over hose in a cool and dark place you will have a life time supply of that particular part.
be sure to talk to the old timer in the hardwear store and tell him you are replacing a peice of clear borken gass line...
If that dosnt sound right to you, find a way of providing us with a picture. uploading photos is easy if you sign up as a member, it is free... just follow the new user registration link at the bottom of this post.
You may also need a gasket kit or material to replace the gaskets on your carb if you have broken any gasket...
permatex works, but it is a hastle, and if it gets in to the carb, then you have a major carb cleaning job to do and if you dont like spending hours of tinkering cleaning ports and valves you may want to avoid permatex all together...
