## Discrepancy

DURING A POST FLIGHT INSPECTION, THE FLIGHT CREW NOTED FUEL LEAKING FROM THE LT ENGINE GANG DRAIN AREA. A CONTRACTED MAINTENANCE TECHNICIAN FOUND A FIRE LOOP HAD WORN A HOLE INTO AN ADJACENT FUEL LINE AND ALSO CAUSED SIGNIFICANT WEAR INTO A SECOND FUEL LINE; NO DAMAGE WAS NOTED ON THE FIRE LOOP. BOTH FUEL LINES (P/N: 23056449 & 23056762) WERE REPLACED WITH NEW; LEAK AND OPERATIONAL CHECKS WERE NORMAL. A FLEET WIDE INSPECTION CAMPAIGN IS CURRENTLY BEING CONDUCTED ON OTHER AIRCRAFT FOR ANY DEFECTS.
