After further investigation, I noticed it originated from the fuel filler tube which allows the gas to travel from the gas cap to the gas storage tank. August 2010, the leakage became so severe from the fuel filler tube I feared someone could ignite (I.e. Cigarette, cell phone, static charge) the 1 to 2 gallons of fuel leaked at the pump.
