Three tubes/pipes underneath nearside of centre?
 
Hi, can someone tell me what these three pipes/tubes are, they are quite flexible?

I managed to nip one of the larger ones and it almost looks like another black pipe inside it

The ones visible either side of the exhaust will be air con drain tubes, and a bit higher up are the plenum tubes

Are those the short open ended ones? The ones I am referring to run the length of the car, or as far as I could see anyway. They are clipped to the underside.

There are two aircon drain tubes that exit from the HVAC system below the car (Either side of the transmission tunnel) these should be clipped to the floor.

I think Ed is referring to the fuel line pipes that are on the NS of the under carriage which the go up into the engine bay, photo's of all below.

Thanks Artic.

As I feared, it's a fuel pipe! Nothing leaking out of it though, I must have just cut the outer casing. Any suggestions on how to repair it?

Is the fuel pipe here a plastic pipe inside a rubber casing? If so and there is no leak I may have got away with it.
