Just got a used 2008 Pontiac G6 and it is using up fuel quicker than I expected. I am checking around the engine and soon will check underneath once the rain stops. Is there anywhere else I need to check for a fuel leak or could it be the fuel injector?

I'm not sure of engine litre size? Use a gage and check fuel pressure. Not only check for correct pressure, check that the pressure holds after the fuel pump stops. Does the crankcase oil smell like gas?
