Fuel Leak

I've only had my truck for a couple of weeks, and I have been running off the front tank only. Today I put about 10 gallons of fuel in the back tank and drove around a bit to make sure everything was ok (the truck sat for 5 years). It seemed to run fine but when I got home I soon noticed a small puddle of fuel under the tank. It is leaking from the rubber hose that connects to the bottom rear of the tank. The hose is very brittle and needs to be replaced. The problem is the other end of the hose appears to be inaccessible with the tank in place. Does anyone know an easy way to fix this without having to drain and remove the tank? Thanks!
