Other Fuel System Fuel Injection System problem #1

We smelled gas from the engine area. Upon further inspection noted a leak in the fuiel injection system . Gas was dripping every 1 second near the o ring by the outlet fuel rail. Help!. This vehicle is not a 3. 5l engine but a 3. 3l 1996 Chrysler Concorde. I know the 3. 5l had a recall on this did the 3. 3l have one also and noone notice????? also when you put the floor shifter into gear I. E. Drive, the vehicle does not move forward, or if in reverse that either. Then it jerks into gear almost like the shifter or leavers are not working. I have had this vehicle looked at for transmission problems and that is not the issue. I do believe it may be a shifter issue and then the o ring leaking gas like a dripping faucet.
