fuel line unless someone has re-routed it. The metal line under the car is the vapor return line; the "real" fuel line is the plastic line that runs through the pax compartment along the right side frame rail. That line, incidentally is a special material that collapses when heated and seals itself, so don't ever replace it with ordinary rubber fuel hose.

What's probably happening is that someone has partially disconnected the vapor return line without plugging the now open ends. If you do this, on a full or nearly full gas tank gas will siphon through the line from the tank and pee on the ground. The cure is to disconnect the vapor return line at the tank and plug the open end. Do that right away; it's not a good idea to stream gas under your car so it can get on a hot exhaust pipe!
