I have a fuel leak that appears to be at the left side of the pump body. It drips down from the pump body on the tank-to-lever pump line. It is not from any of the metal line flare connections. The lever primer pump and gasket are new. It looks to me as though there are only two other possibilities for the source of the leak; I show them in yellow on the attached diagram; both are gaskets. Are there any other possibilities? This situation is really a pain. I can either deal with a constant leak or shut the fuel off at the tank after use and have to re-prime the injection pump every time before starting the engine.
