What Mike is saying is a goos start and may be all there is to it. I would also check the fuel pump. Look to see if it is leaking at the weep holes. Clean the valley/pump the best you can and look for a leak with the inspection mirror while its running.
Let us know what you find or have any other questions.
Good luck!

Also the bottom of the fuel canister can leak do to corrosion there.
