Undercarriage Lines - what are there?

Hi,
Does someone know what lines these are? Red allow and blue arrow.



Thanks

Fuel and power steering (two lines for power steering, one pressure and one return)

uhm...not sure about that. The two pointed to Those like fuel lines to me based on diameter, and connections. Not sure about location on car,

Sorry, those are both fuel. The fat one to the left is one power steering line and the other is off screen and higher.

Location is the forward left corner of the engine compartment where the lines go forward.

Thanks for that.
I noticed the line with the red arrow was a bit wet. Maybe there is a small leak.

Anyone had the same problem and fixed it?

Reviving an old question/issue. I'm seeing weeping from the connection that the blue arrow is pointing. I believe that this is the fuel return line. Is this a low pressure line? Does anyone have a good idea of how to repair? I'd suspect that the issue is with the quick connect and not the nipple side of the connection. I'd appreciate any guidance

The red line looks like part of the evap system that runs from the charcoal cannister to the regeneration valve.

Howdy is exactly right. The plastic tube the red arrow points to connects to the regeneration valve underneath the left intake manifold. I'm working on a write-up about replacing the valve, in which I talk about that tube.
