Hi there,

You will have to carefully check all the fuel lines, pay particular attention to where the stain is, you may have to start the engine to get full fuel pressure up before you can see the leak, you will want to fix this as it is a high fire danger, if in doubt get your mechanic to inspect ASAP.
