Did I do something to my fuel rail to make it leak.
I got in my car today and thought "hey it sure is burnin rich today" (I could smell the gas). Then I noticed a huge amount of evaporation from under the hood.
There is a massive fuel leak, pointed out with the arrow.
I got no idea how to fix this, or if I did something wrong when I took the intake off?
Any ideas?

May have tore an O ring or injector not seated.Loosen up the fuel rail and see if the injector will seat if it does then check the rings.I know Jeeps had a problem of the injecters cracking and leaking.

Get a set of orings from your local parts store, its pretty cheap. You actually need two sets. One set is 8 o rings and there are 2 o rings per injector (16 total orings). Since you have to pull the fuel rail off anyways you might as well replace all of them so you know theyre all good. Just be sure to lube up the new o rings before trying to seat the injectors into the manifold or the rail. Pretty cheap and easy fix. I replace all of mine when I installed my ls6 mani.
