Uh oh... not MORE fuel leaks.  On my car I discovered that the main fuel lines had developed a leak
where the lines go through the rubber clamps with stainless steel bands around them.  Moisture gets
trapped around these 'blocks' and once some sand or rocks chip away the hard candy coating on the
lines they start to deteriorate slowly.  You may want to check all around the rubber clips to see if
they are moist.  Mine was leaking from INSIDE one of the blocks.   *sigh*
