It sounds like you have a fuel leak somewhere near the intake manifold. At this point, I would not attempt to drive the car or even run it. What I recommend, is clean the area around the fuel lines, rail, injector, regulator, etc then turn the key to RUNII this will prime the fuel pump and send approx 36psi to the fuel rail. If there is a leak, you should be able to see it. Look for the injector seals to be leaking, the fuel rail has aluminum washers where the line bolts up, those might be leaking as well. There are many possibilities, just take a peak and let us know. It may be necessary to even start the car if you do not source your leak and let the fuel run through the whole system.
