Can you get the locking ring off the old filter? Or is it all tore up now ?

Measure the filter pipe, but I think it's 5/16" steel. The fittings are just Bundy style. Use a heat gun to remove the old fitting and measure before ordering a new one, or take it to the store with you. Heat up the line with the heat gun before re-installing the new fitting to soften up the line and avoid damage and leaks. It's under about 50 psi of fuel pressure.

IS there anything wrong with the lines (other than the one whose fitting maybe-broke?)

The old filter's tips are clean so they did their job

Do you have a heat gun ( hot air gun...) ? You can remove the end from the line with a heat gun ( soften up the line and pull the fitting out...). DO NOT USE ANY KIND OF FLAME TO HEAT THE LINE !
Then NAPA or one of the other autoparts stores (even Advance Autoparts...) has the replacement fittings that will fit the fuel filter ( Bundy style - 5/16" pipe...). But take your new fuel filter, or one they have in the store and make sure the fitting clicks tight on the filter, before you bother to re-install it on the fuel line.


Something like this....
