I think we went thru this recently and came up with 20-22 feet to do the whole 
car, front and back.

Are you sure the line is leaking in the tunnel? I've never seen them actually 
leak there, even in cars which were completely rusted out everywhere else. I'd 
suspect that there was a leak at one end which might run down the tube and into 
the tunnel from the end, instead.

I don't know how hard it might be to replace. It may actually be welded 
somewhere inside there. As for the length, you should be able to measure it 
pretty easily from below; it's almost straight.
