2000GotBoxS's post in Carbon Canister Issue was marked as the answer
Apparently, one of the hoses was knocked loose as I put the plastic wheel well cover back in place. The noise is gone, and the new AC hard line is installed and the AC works, and blows at about 42 degrees, and the carbon canister is no longer making that annoying noise. It was the canister with the three hoses up on the top, and it was the outermost (against the outside fender) hose that had worked loose.
What a mess that board that I ran over ended up causing. But, its all fixed now!
Thanks Jager for the comment.

2000GotBoxS's post in AC Metal Line (Tube) Replacement was marked as the answer
Thanks Ahsai,
Actually, I just answered my own question. Once I removed the carbon canister that is shoved into that inner fender cavity on the passenger side, then the clamp that holds the AC Line is easily undone, and the line can be removed fairly easily.
There are three hoses that are attached to the carbon canister that have the pinch type release mechanisms on them. These are pretty difficult to get to, as I have rather large hands, but, I did manage to wiggle things around and got them undone.
With a couple quick pulls on the carbon canister, towards the front of the car, it comes out of its slots at the passenger door hinge, and pulls straight out.
Once its removed, the rest is very straight forward.
Thanks for your help. If anyone else ever has to remove and replace this hose, its really not that difficult once you gain access to it.
Thanks again.
