Narrative:
At about 11,000' in climbout from sat the 'B' loop light came on #1 engine. While getting the checklist out, the fire bell, light, and voice came on. We retarded the throttle. Light stayed on in handle then shut off fuel lever, pulled fire handle and completed the checklist. Fire went out. Returned on #2 engine to sat with no problems. Maintenance discovered a hole (about 15 cm) in a 13TH stage bleed line on top of the engine. We did request emergency equipment. All of the event reminded me of a training situation in a simulator except for initial warning.
