Smoking Engine

Hello once again. I finally have the engine put back togather but have one problem. After running for a little bit the line aqbove the fuel rail but under the upper manifold(it looks like it is copper colored) begins to overheat and smoke. Does anyone have some help? Would be great to get it rolling by tonight.

Figured it out. I believe it was liquid wrench on the line that was burning off. It is gone now but the line did melt through two vacuum lines. Apperantly one was power brakes, which just made me have to push them to the floor in order to stop very fast. It's getting an exhaust put on now and damn did those headers give it some power.
