fuel leak

Getting ready to move across the country and was having some work done on my car and having the suspension system and fuel filter replaced. The part of the line that feeds into the filter was covered with a heat shield that apparently held moisture. Two feet of the fuel line was totally corroded and broke off. It couldn't have been more than a millimeter thick in cross section. My mechanic was able to MacGuyver a replacement while I look for the actual replacement part, but I am supposed to leave town in 3 days and my car reeks of gas fumes whenever I turn it on. This just seems like a crummy design, and a load of crap given two earlier recalls related to the fuel system.
