Default Leaking in the tank

Just installed a new Racetronix pump yesterday. Of course the line is leaking from the side that came pre clamped from Racetronix. Should I just cut the line and run some rubber? Anyone else have this happen? I'm still getting good pressure, but I don't want it to leak more and lose pressure.

Rubber will likely fail.

Is it the clamp or is the line damaged?

You can pick up another clamp at any good parts store.

Probably the clamp. It's not a worm clamp, it's the one time fitted clamp.
