CM 1975 Corvette Gas Leak

My 1975 Corvette has a gas leak in the rubber hose that connects the tank to the steel lines that run down the railings to the engine. How do you get to that hose to replace it? I'm sure you would have to drop the gas tank. I was wondering if that would be possible by just jacking the car up or would you have to have the car up on a lift so that you would have room to drop the tank? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

you might be able to get to it by removing the trim bezel and rubber from around the gas cap fill neck. i peeled my tank sticker of by removing that bezel.
