drop the tank a little and replace the inlet or outlet hose that is leaking. Depending upon the age and rust issues there could be a hole on top due to debret that has finally rusted through.
There are store patch kits but they are about as useful as a loaded dirty diaper. What works for me and the junk yard I worked for for years use JB WELD and a piece of tin can metal I cut and placed over the hole once I wire brushed it to bare metals.

more than likely it is just a crack in the return line from the engine. if it was the pressure line from the tank to the engine it would be spraying gas not just leaking it and you would have a heck of a time getting it to start.
