Default 1989 Accord - Can't identify the source of a fuel leak.

i don't usually use forums, so please forgive/let me know if i've done this wrong.
i know very little about cars, other than what my dad (thinks he) knows, so let me know if i can clarify.
i have an '89 accord (fuel injected) that's been sitting for a year or so. (my brother drove it with few problems prior to this.) we put gas in the tank, & the pump seems to work, but fuel shoots out from under a bolt/hose thing at one end of the fuel rail. i've looked in the manual online, but can't identify this part. does anyone have any idea what's going on? also, any advice for getting a car that's been sitting out for so long up & going? thanks so much, & sorry this is so unclear!

I'm guessing the Banjo bolt fitting where the hose goes to the fuel filter.
There is supposed to be aluminum crush washers on the top and bottom of that fitting.
