Also smelled like fuel when I was able to keep it running.
I plan on replacing all of them when I find the time and a vac diagram.

Lou, when I went to replace all of mine, I went to RealOEM, printed off the diagrams for every hose, highlighted them, cross checked on the car, determined which ones I have to replace with specific hoses vs. where I could use bulk hoses. I did this for vacumm, fuel and coolant hoses and replaced them all in a weekend. Since doing this two years ago, along with the water pump and radiator, I've had no issues and slept better.
