06 fuel line fitting connection

I searched and didn't find a post similar to what I"m looking for. I'm in the process of removing my intake manifold and when I disconnected the fuel lines at the secondary filter housing the largest fitting and line twisted before the compression nut broke free. If I remember right the fitting needed a 13/16" & 7/8" wrenches to loosen, it's also the fitting that goes into the cover for the blue spring upgrade. The other fittings were smaller wrench sizes.

So I picked up that replacement of damaged fuel line today with my new Oil cooler kit and when I looked at the fuel line end that goes down around the driver side cylinder head has a end for different kind of fitting I'm not familiar with. I guess I need some special tool but it's not obvious to me what I need for a tool or the process of disconnecting it?

Can any one help me out?

Sound like the fuel supply tube and the bottom end is a spring lock fuel line, you can buy a disconnect tool for about 10 bucks at most part stores.
