Where is the fuel coming from? The pinch seam on the tank, or the fittings in the fuel pump area? You either have a failed fuel line connection (relatively easy fix) or your tank has failed (more involved fix), depending on the source.
Errrr not to be too opportunistic, but if you need a new tank I've got a couple nice ones. Please be very careful - don't let the fuel vapors concentrate in your garage. When working down there, I like to pull the fuel pump relay and disconnect the battery. Can't be too careful when dealing with gasoline.

Hopefully the two are related and you can kill two birds with one stone!
