Maybe if you could find a good donor and remove the fuel lines carefully and without bending or stressing them, maybe you could save some money. There'* also the alternative of converting to more traditional barbed metal lines with hoses and clamps etc. as needed. Either way, it needs to be done well by someone with experience or you will end up burning it down the next time.

The tank can come from a good donor as well.
Dorman fuel line repair kit has all the quick connects and nylon line to repair the lines also some barbs to spice any 1/4 or 3/8 size line and convert to nylon. Comes with a few feet of line also. Not sure about replacing sending unit or tank if needed.
Also,I would replace all 3 lines up to past the filter. There is a bracket attached to frame that holds dirt and corrosion lines will likely be leaking soon at that location. Can use nylon all the way to where lines go up to engine. If you want to go a step further look at the MasterCool Hydraulic crimper. It allows crimping quick connect in the steel lines while still on vehicle.
fuel line kit is actually carried by Walmart online now. About $200.
