I payed for rental gear and was reimbursed, however the reimbursement was combined into one payment with my paycheck, so I am being taxed on this. Under what section would I put the reimbursement amount?

Just because it's in a payroll check does not mean it was taxed. It's taxed only if it was mistakenly entered as wages. As you go through the interview it asks for work related expenses that were NOT reimbursed. You need to ask your employer how it was handled. Let your employer make the correction if you think you are being taxed on a reimbursement.
