[DML] Need guidance regarding gasoline leak



I just filled my car for the second time last night.  As it was 
topping off, a couple of people walking by noticed gasoline dripping 
from underneath, near the passenger side (I think near the corner of 
the triangular plate).

Looks like maybe a cup or so of gas dripped on the concrete, then 
stopped.  I took the car on a 20 minute ride, no more drips and the 
tank stayed full per the gauge.

I haven't looked into it yet, and plan to do so this weekend.  I 
always smell gas when parked in the garage, so I know something is 
allowing fumes to escape all the time, and hope it is obvious when I 
take a look at it.  but if it isn't obvious, anyone have a similar 
experience?  Could it be something like a leak in filler tube/pipe 
between the tank and gas fill opening?

I suspect parts are original for the fuel tank equipment. Perhaps I am 
in need of some sort of fuel system replacement kit. 

Thanks,

Paul
