Sounds like a gas line that is leaking, the steal line would need to be repaired by cutting the old line out, the ends should be flared, then a coupling is used to connect the lines. You should just take it in somewhere to be repaired. Do not be driving it like this, the chance of fire is high.

Thanks so much. Time's are hard these days so I'm going to have to look for someone that can fix it cheap or do it myself.

It should not be a major cost to repair, but if the car started fire, then the cost could be your life.
